Summary
The mechanical control of supragingival biofilm is accepted as one of the most important
measures to prevent dental caries and periodontal diseases. Nevertheless, maintaining dental
surfaces biofilm-free is not an easy task. In this regard, numerous studies researches have
demonstrated the effectiveness of mouthwashes containing antimicrobial active ingredients
that prevent and control both supragingival biofilm and gingivitis, specially when used
adjunctively to mechanical oral hygiene regimens.
