ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a new home-use device designed to help reduce plaque and bacteria on teeth more effectively than traditional cleaning methods, like brushing and flossing. The device uses dual light technology to target biofilm, which is a sticky layer of bacteria that can form on teeth. The researchers want to see if using this device at home can help keep your teeth cleaner and healthier compared to just mechanical cleaning.

To participate in this study, you should be a healthy adult aged between 65 and 74 years old, and you need to be able to take care of your own oral hygiene. If you have gum disease or have trouble maintaining regular oral care, you might not be eligible. If you join the trial, you'll be asked to use the device and then share your experiences, helping researchers understand its effectiveness. This study could lead to better ways for everyone to maintain oral health!
