Brief summary: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy of two different toothbrushes (manual and sonic) on plaque control

Detailed description: A parallel randomized clinical trial, examiner-blind, was conducted involving 56 patients with ages from 15 to 20, all students of CAMP (Centro de Formação e Integração Social), in the city of São Bernardo do Campo, state of São Paulo, Brazil. Randomization: the subjects were randomly allocated to two different groups (A for the manual toothbrush and B for the sonic toothbrush) by removing from an urn a paper with their respective group. Silness \& Löe Gingival Index, the Turesky Modification of the Quigley Hein Plaque Index and the Community Periodontal Index were evaluated at baseline and after 3 and 6 months.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* Subjects had to be in generally good health, and possessing a minimum of 20 permanent natural teeth, excluding third molars.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Subjects were excluded if they had fixed orthodontic appliances, advanced periodontal disease, limited manual dexterity, active caries, medical conditions limiting their salivary function or immunological condition, and if they were smokers.

Primary outcomes:
measure: Silness & Löe Gingival Index
timeFrame: 6 months
measure: Turesky Modification of the Quigley Hein Plaque Index
timeFrame: 6 months
