ABSTRACT

Objectives: This study was to analyze the effects of comparative evalua tion of the effects of oil pulling and chlorhexidine on periodontal and oral health-related quality of life. Methods: The total subjects were 38. In the experimental group (19 subjects), coconut oil was provided and In the control group (19 subjects), chlorhexidine was provided. The participants in each group were asked to routinely perform oil swishing with coconut oil or 2% chlorhexidine mouthwash every day in the morning after brushing for 2-3 minutes. We evaluated possession site of pocket depth (≥4 mm) and hemorrhage on exploring. The follow ing clinical parameters were assessed at baseline, after 4 weeks and after 12 weeks. Furthermore, oral health-related quality of life was eval uated at baseline and after 12 weeks. Results: The control group decreased 5.71 to 3.35 and the experimental group decreased 6.53 to 2.35 in hemorrhage on exploring by coconut oil and chlorhexidine intervention (p=0.071). Both two groups showed significant difference in hemorrhage on exploring by measurement time (p
