牙间隙刷辅助刷牙对正畸牙菌斑控制的观察

Clinical Observation on Plaque Control in Orthodontic Fixed Appliance with Interdental Brush

目的:本研究通过指导正畸固定矫治器治疗的患者在刷牙时配合使用牙间隙刷,观察其控制菌斑的效果。方法:选择采用固定矫治的正畸患者60例,随机分为两组,实验组刷牙时配合使用牙间隙刷,对照组刷牙时未使用牙间隙刷。矫治1个月、6个月和1年后分别使用菌斑显示剂检测牙菌斑指数。结果:矫治期间实验组菌斑指数显著低于对照组,两组菌斑指数差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论:接受固定矫治器治疗的患者刷牙时配合使用牙间隙刷能有效的控制菌斑,有利于正畸患者的口腔卫生维护,从而减少口腔疾病的发生。

Objective ：To observe the effect of plaque control by guiding patients treated with fixed appliance to brush teeth with interdental brush.
