Efficacy, Safety and Patient Preference of Knotted Floss Technique in Type I Gingival Embrasures.

Conclusion: KF is as effective and safe as an inter-dental oral hygiene technique for reducing plaque biofilm and gingival inflammation and bleeding, as compared to CF in Type I gingival embrasures, when both were used in conjunction with regular tooth-brushing. KF was shown to be better than CF in in terms of improved plaque biofilm scores. PMID: 30819846 [PubMed - in process]
