A randomized trial of the effectiveness of an ultrasonic denture hygiene intervention program among communitydwelling elders* by Ronald Chan, Jiaguan Zhang, Colman Mcgrath, Paul Tsang, Otto Lam

“…Denture cleanliness was assessed at baseline and 1-month using: i) Denture Cleanliness Index (DCI) scores; ii) plaque coverage percentage; and (iii) microbiological samples for bacterial and yeast detection. Differences between groups were assessed with one-way analysis of variance and Chi-squared tests.ResultsMean DCI scores and mean percentages of plaque coverage area were significantly reduced in group 1 and group 2, compared to the control group for both cobalt chromium (CoCr) and acrylic fitting surfaces (p<0.001). …”
