I finally ordered it
When I first ordered it, that part of the order got cancelled. Ever since, I have been mixing in green tea extract. , but I finally have actually ordered it by itself. Hopefully it will soon arrive. I know of a couple studies that showed green tea extract with gum also being good in children's teeth., but that is not relevant here.<br /><br />  http://www.jidonline.com/article.asp?issn=2229-5194;year=2012;volume=2;issue=2;spage=108;epage=112;aulast=Deshpande<br /><br />These 30 patients were randomly divided into three groups using block randomization method. The first group received professional scaling and root planing alone (SRP). The second group (SRP + GT) received scaling and root planing at baseline along with green tea for a period of 6 months. The third group received only green tea (GT) for a period of 6 months without any professional SRP.”<br /><br />It was observed that the regular oral intake of the green tea led to the improvement of oral health status. All the three groups showed significant (P &#60; 0.01) improvement in all the parameters measured at baseline and compared at 3 and 6 months.”<br /><br />Used as mouth wash: not as clearly convincing: http://link.springer.com/article/10.1186/2008-2231-20-39#page-1<br />“Results: Twenty five students were recruited in each arm of the study. A significant improvement was observed in<br />all periodontal indices during the study (P &#60; 0.001). Two groups were contrasted by changing patterns of alteration<br />of indices (P &#60; 0.05). Although total amount of improvement was higher in mouthwash group, the differences did<br />not reach a statistically significant level (P &#62; 0.05, observed power for GI: 0.09, PI: 0.11 and BI: 0.07).”
