- Bacterial count reduction in saliva after a single application of OML in comparison to placebo application [ Time Frame: After 1 minute of rinsing ]Bacterial count reduction is measured at V1 (Verum/Placebo) and V3 (Placebo/Verum) in a blinded cross-over design
- Mean plaque index (PI) [ Time Frame: After 5 days of application ]PI is measured at V2 (Verum/Placebo) and V4 (Placebo/Verum) in a blinded cross-over design
- Change in mean gingival index (GI) [ Time Frame: After 5 days of application ]GI is measured at V1/V2 (Verum/Placebo) and V3/V4 (Placebo/Verum) in a blinded cross-over design
- Evaluation of taste and flavour (questionnaire) [ Time Frame: After 5 days of application ]
- AEs and SAEs [ Time Frame: 4 weeks ]
