Detailed Summary
This study is 6 weeks long with 6 visits to a clinical site. People participating in this study will be asked to brush their teeth two times a day with a provided toothbrush. For one of those six weeks people will be asked to rinse with a mouthwash. During that time, people will use the mouthwash two times a day and will not be allowed to brush their teeth at all. The mouth, teeth, tongue and gums will be looked at by a dentist. At each visit, people will rinse with a pink liquid that will dye their mouths pink. The dye is temporary and will go away by the end of the day. They may also be asked to complete a short questionnaire about their experience.
