Abstract

Objective: The state of one's mouth and dentition has a huge effect on one's life. As a result, everyone should strive for a safe mouth with a full complement of teeth. Toothbrush and toothpaste are the most regularly used oral hygiene tools. Apart from these two, people utilize other oral hygiene products either knowingly or on the recommendation of a dentist. while tooth powders are also used as a regular cleaning agent in some parts of the world, owing to their low cost. Literature on this subject is practically non-existent. As a result, it was deemed necessary to investigate the effectiveness of tooth powders in comparison to toothpastes as an oral hygiene regimen.
