A periodontal probe with a 0.5 millimeter (mm) diameter tip will be inserted into the gingival crevice and swept from distal to mesial around the tooth at an angle of approximately 60 degree, while in contact with the sulcular epithelium. Each of 6 gingival areas (distobuccal, mid-buccal, mesiobuccal, distolingual, mid-lingual, and mesiolingual) around each tooth will be assessed.

Each of 6 gingival areas (distobuccal, mid-buccal, mesiobuccal, distolingual, mid-lingual, and mesiolingual) around each tooth will be assessed. After approximately 30 seconds, bleeding at each gingival unit will be recorded according to the following scale: 0 (Absence of bleeding after 30 seconds); 1 (Bleeding after 30 seconds); 2 (Immediate bleeding). | 4 Weeks and 12 Weeks |

Bleeding will be assessed according to the Expanded Gingival Bleeding Index, 168 Sites. A periodontal probe with a 0.5 millimeter (mm) diameter tip will be inserted into the gingival crevice and swept from distal to mesial around the tooth at an angle of approximately 60 degree, while in contact with the sulcular epithelium. Each of 6 gingival areas (distobuccal, mid-buccal, mesiobuccal, distolingual, mid-lingual, and mesiolingual) around each tooth will be assessed.

| Interproximal of the Proximal Marginal Plaque Index Score After 4 and 12 Weeks | Interproximal Plaque area will be assessed using the PMI on the facial and lingual surfaces. Distal proximal and mesial proximal will be assessed on all teeth including the distal of the second molar using the following scoring system: 0 = No plaque; 1 = Separate flecks of plaque covering less than 1/3 of the area; 2 = Discrete areas or bands of plaque covering less than 1/3 of the area; 3 = Plaque covering 1/3 of the area; 4 = Plaque covering more than 1/3 but less than 2/3 of the area; 5 = Plaque covering 2/3 or more of the area. | 4 Weeks and 12 Weeks |
