The purpose of the present study was to compare the OHI-S and the two versions of PHP Index in measuring the effectiveness of dental floss in the removal of dental plaque. The study demonstrated that the PHP Index provides a higher sensitivity than the OHI-S in measuring the effectiveness of approximal cleansing aids, such as dental floss. This, it seems that using the PHP Index in dental floss studies is preferable to using the OHI-S.
本研究的目的是比较口腔卫生指数简化版(OHI-S)和两种版本的菌斑指数(PHP指数)在测量牙线清除牙菌斑效果方面的差异。该研究表明,在测量诸如牙线等邻面清洁辅助工具的效果时,PHP指数比OHI-S具有更高的敏感性。因此,在牙线研究中使用PHP指数似乎比使用OHI-S更可取。
