This is a single-center, examiner-blind, 2 week, 2 treatment, parallel group, randomized study design. Approximately sixty (60) adolescent subjects, 13-17 years of age, who show evidence of areas with dental plaque and who are routine manual toothbrush users and possess a Smartphone will be enrolled in this study. Plaque measurements will be taken at three time points: Screening, Baseline, and Week 2 using the Turesky Modified Quigley-Hein Plaque Index (TQHPI).
Subjects will be asked to refrain from all oral hygiene procedures after their morning brushing (which is to be no later than 8 am) prior to all visits (Screening, Baseline, and Week 2). In addition, the subjects will be asked to refrain from eating, drinking, or chewing gum for 2 hours prior to their appointment time. Only small sips of water are permissible. Subjects should refrain from sipping water 45 minutes prior to their scheduled visit.
Subjects will complete a pre and post-use questionnaire with elements of self-assessment (brushing habits, compliance, oral care motivation, self-perceived change in oral health). The subject post-use questionnaire will also include elements of user satisfaction.
