Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Mouthwash with chlorhexidine and cetylpyridine chloride: GUM® Paroex chlorhexidine 0.12% and cetylpyridinium chloride 0.05%; dosage: 10 mL orally, rinse for 60 seconds, twice daily for 30 days. Prior: non-surgical periodontal therapy.

Study summary
This randomized non-inferiority clinical trial aims to evaluate the microbiological effect of 0.12% chlorhexidine and 0.05% cetylpyridinium vs. probiotics (Lactobacillus reuteri Prodentis) on Porphyromonas gingivalis in patients with periodontal disease and diabetes mellitus in Colima, where molecular biology tests such as qPCR will be performed at the end, before and after treatment in each of the groups.
Eligibility
