Further study details as provided by Federal University of Paraíba:

Primary Outcome Measures:

Gingival inflammation (Blood gingival index) [ Time Frame: baseline ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
In this time frame will be assessed the initial gingival inflammation in children.
Plaque amount [ Time Frame: Baseline ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
In this time will be assessed the initial oral hygiene condition of the children before the use of the product through the Simplified Oral Hygiene Index.

Secondary Outcome Measures:

Gingival inflammation (Blood gingival Index) [ Time Frame: After 7 days (t1) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
In this time frame will be assessed the gingival inflammation in children after 7 days using the product.
Gingival inflammation (blood gingival index) [ Time Frame: After 14 days (t2) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
In this time frame will be assessed the final condition of the children after 14 days using the product.
Plaque amount [ Time Frame: After 7 days (t1) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
In this time will be assessed the oral hygiene condition of the children after 7 days using the product (Through Simplified Oral Hygiene Index).
Plaque amount [ Time Frame: After 14 days (t2) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
In this time will be assessed the final oral hygiene condition of the children after 14 days using the product (through the Simplified Oral Hygiene Index).
