This study was designed as double-blind, randomized, crossover study to evaluate the influence of a triclosan-containing toothpaste in the profile of osteo-immunoinflammatory mediators in the PICF of smoker individuals and in the clinical measurements during the progression of experimental peri-implant mucositis. This investigation was approved by the ethics committee of Paulista University . Patient recruitment started in July 2013 and was completed by the end of September 2014. Clinical procedures and evaluations were carried out between September 2013 and November 2014. Data entry and statistical analyses were performed in April 2015. All the patients in the study were recruited from the patients referred to Paulista University. Patients were thoroughly informed of the nature, potential risks and benefits of their participation in the study, and they each signed an informed consent document. During this 3-week period, participants were randomly assigned to two groups by a computer-generated list: Triclosan (n=13): triclosan/copolymer/fluoride toothpaste or Placebo (n=13): fluoride toothpaste, by filling the individual silicone stent with the respective toothpaste, according to the experimental group, and allowing it to come into contact with the implant area for 2 min, three times per day. Conventional tooth brushing was performed in the non-stent areas.
