| dc.description.other-abstract | Plaque accumulation is one of the problems that can be found in people at all ages. To prevent plaque from building up, we use toothbrush and dental floss. Nowadays, there are two types of floss holder, F type and Y type, for interdental plaque removal. Gingivitis and periodontitis are preventable with proper flossing, which takes only two to three minutes a day. Therefore, investigators are interested in comparing the effect of floss holder between Y and F type on interdental plaque removal, also determining the effect of floss holder and conventional dental floss, both before and after using for interdental plaque removal. Objective: The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of floss holder between Y type, F type and conventional dental floss on interdental plaque removal. Materials and methods: The forty-three systemic healthy subjects aged 18-25 years old who have been studying in dental faculty of Rangsit University were recruited for this research. For the first visit, all subjects' plaque index were recorded and received oral prophylaxis (scaling). Then, we gave them conventional dental floss for one-month using. For the second visit, all subjects' plaque index were recorded both before and after using conventional dental floss by blind technique-using red sunglasses. Then they were divided into two groups by stratified random sampling. One group used floss holder type Fand the other used floss holder type Y. We also gave them oral hygiene instruction for two-week using. For the third visit, both groups' plaque index were recorded both before and after using floss holder by blind technique. Then, two groups of subjects alternated their previous type of floss holder to the other group. We also gave them floss holder for two-week using. Finally, the forth visit, both groups' plaque index were recorded, both before and after using floss holder by blind technique. Results: According to the study, the efficiency between conventional dental floss, F type and Y type floss holder in all proximal surfaces of teeth are 37.25% Y type floss holder, 32.79% F type floss holder and 31.70% conventional dental floss. The efficiency between conventional dental Toss, type and Y type floss holder in all proximal surfaces of anterior teeth are 18.98% Y type floss holder, 14.55% F type floss holder and 14.26% conventional dental floss. The efficiency between conventional dental floss, F type and Y type floss holder in all proximal surfaces of premolar teeth are 9.97% Y type floss holder, 9.39% F type floss holder and 8.90% conventional dental floss. Lastly, the efficiency between conventional dental floss, F type and Y type floss holder in all proximal surfaces of molar teeth are 8.86% Y type floss holder, 7.81% F type floss holder and 8.50% conventional dental floss. Conclusion: Dental floss has an effective method used for interproximal plaque removal. There are many types of dental floss in the market which are conventional dental floss, Y-type floss holder and F-type floss holder. The result of this study shows that the Y-type floss holder is the most effective dental floss in removing interproximal plaque. The value of plaque index in every area are different, however, there is no statistically significant difference. | en_US |
