abstract={MATATACORO<SUP>TM</SUP> (containing 10 <i>mg/l</i> stabilized chlorine dioxide: MA-T, no alcohol, and is an odorless antibacterial agent) is useful for sterilization and disinfection. The aim of this study was to investigate whether MA-T is an appropriate mouth rinse for patients selected from whom undergoing initial periodontal treatment. The effect of rinsing with MA-T was compared with that with Concool<SUP>TM</SUP> (containing 0.05% chlorhexidine gluconate: CX), Neosterine Green<SUP>TM</SUP> (containing 0.02% benzethonium chloride: NG), and purified water (PW). MA-T rinsing resulted in a marked change in the BANA-score and in the VAS scale. The mean BANA scores (score ¡À SD) on day 0 and day 30 were 1.55&#177;0.50 and 0.4&#177;0.50 (p&lt;0.001) for MA-T, 1.65&#177;0.48 and 0.75&#177;0.44 for CX, 1.43&#177;0.50 and 0.88&#177;0.61 for NG, and 1.83&#177;0.38 and 1.48&#177;0.55 for PW, respectively. The intra-oral feeling caused by mouth rinsing was self-assessed using the VAS scores (mean ¡À SD) on day 0 and day 30; they were 48.23&#177;14.70 and 74.43&#177;7.33 (26.2 mm increase) for MA-T, 50.45&#177;11.94 and 62.23&#177;8.88 (11.8 mm increase) for CX, 54.13&#177;8.11 and 63.73&#177;8.18 (9.6 mm increase) for NG, and 54.70&#177;6.06 and 59.18&#177;6.11 (4.5 mm increase) for PW, respectively. These results suggest that MA-T induced marked reduction of periodontopathic oral bacteria and increased feeling of freshness after the treatment period. These results suggest that MA-T is an appropriate mouth rinse for patient with periodontitis.},
