Stannous Fluoride Toothpaste Stabilized With Nitrate and Phosphates (SNaP) Reduces Oral Malodor: A Randomized Clinical Study.

Oral malodor, whether from systemic disease, dietary sources, or bacteria in the oral cavity, can negatively impact patients' quality of life. Oral malodor due to bacteria in the oral cavity can be managed by mechanically or chemically removing bacteria. Dentifrices are ideal vehicles to deliver therapeutic active ingredients that promote and maintain oral health since most consumers brush their teeth daily. Consumer preference drives consistency in oral hygiene routine. This study first identified a favorite flavor via consumer flavor testing and then measured the clinical efficacy of the dentifrice with a new flavor formulation to reduce malodor.
