OBJECTIVE: To compare the clinical effects of Salvadora persica (miswak) oral rinse and commercial Listerein mouth wash on oral health of socially deprived madrasa girls.
METHODS: Girls aged 18-22 years living permanently in a madrasa of Multan city will be recruited. Sample size and trial duration will be determined using the American Dental Association guidelines. Participants will be randomized into two interventional groups; A and B and will be either provided with Salvadora persica oral rinse and commercial Listerein mouth wash respectively. Pre, mid and post-intervention examinations will be executed by a blind and calibrated examiner using Turesky Quigley Hein Plaque and Loe and Silness Gingival indices. Statistical analysis will include descriptive statistics and two sample independent t-tests. The p-value of <0.05 will be considered significant at 95 % confidence level.
