Mouthwash showdown: new formula takes on classic antiseptic for healthier gums

NCT ID NCT07088653

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested two mouthwashes—a standard antiseptic (chlorhexidine) and a new one (MicroRepair ABX)—in 40 adults with gingivitis (gum inflammation). After a professional cleaning, participants used their assigned mouthwash twice daily for 14 days. Researchers measured gum bleeding, plaque buildup, and a saliva marker of inflammation over 6 months to see if the new mouthwash works as well as the standard one.
