Summary
This study will compare charcoal-infused bristle toothbrushes with regular nylon ones in 50 children aged 6 to 10. Researchers want to see which brush removes more plaque and reduces mouth bacteria. Kids will be randomly assigned to one brush, and plaque and bacteria levels will be checked over two weeks.
