Summary

This study tests whether an oil pulling mouthwash can reduce dental plaque, gum inflammation, and harmful bacteria better than a standard mouthwash or a placebo rinse. Healthy adults aged 18 to 70 with mild to moderate gum inflammation will use one of three rinses for a period. Researchers will measure changes in plaque, bleeding, and bacterial levels to see if oil pulling offers real benefits.
