Comparison of the Effects of Mucosa Tissue Healing with Chlorhexidine Digluconate and Choline Salicylate in Patients Wearing a Removable Prosthetic Restoration—A RCT
The WSA decreased most rapidly after 7 days of treatment with 0.2% chlorhexidine digluconate (CHX), slightly more slowly after 10 days of treatment with 8.7% choline salicylate (CHS), and relatively most slowly in the CON group, who were not treated with any topical medication after 14 days. Oral mucosa lesions (OMLs) therapy during the process of adaptation to new removable prosthetic restorations is a very important element supporting the whole process. Topical medications containing 0.2% chlorhexidine digluconate are indicated as adjunctive therapy in the process of the supportive treatment and disinfection of oral mucosa lesions. However, this does not release the dentist from liability for the careful adjustment of the removable prosthetic restoration.
