Helps stop bleeding gums Adapted from Saxer et al 1994. All interdental spaces from 6+ to +6 were tested at baseline and 4 weeks for bleeding on probing on the right side (buccal) and left side (lingual). Findings were recorded as 0=no bleeding; 1=slight/isolated bleeding; 2=marked bleeding. Mean scores were determined. N=22. Baseline values [Mean SD]: Control (fluoride-containing toothpaste) group 24.75 (6.34); parodontax® group 25.40 (6.80). After 4 weeks: Control (fluoride-containing toothpaste) group 26.00 (9.14); parodontax® group 19.80 (7.38). *parodontax® vs control p<0.05.
