Title

Chewable Toothbrush: A New Horizon In Dental Plaque Removal For Diabetics Patients

Abstract

Diabetic patients are more prone to get gingival & periodontal diseases as their body glycemic level aggravates the periodontal destruction caused by plaque and calculus, good plaque control facilitates good gingival and periodontal health, prevents tooth decay, and preserves oral health. Thus oral hygiene is the key to the prevention and successful treatment of inflammatory periodontal disease. Toothbrushes being an adjunct part of daily life are the oldest and simplest method for maintaining oral hygiene. There has been an evolution from the ancient chew sticks to the modern era of smart toothbrushes. Among such toothbrushes, one such popular one is the chewable toothbrush. A chewable toothbrush is a miniature plastic molded toothbrush that can be placed inside the mouth no water is available. They are most commonly available from bathroom vending machines and are available in different flavors such as mint or bubblegum and should be disposed of after use. These brushes prove to be quite handy for travelers and are available commercially in various forms. Studies have also shown its effectiveness in plaque removal when used in care-dependent elderly population who are more prone to have diabetes, school children, including children with disabilities.
