The effect of oral rinses on organoleptic mouth odor ratings and levels of volatile sulfur compounds

N F Schmidt et al. Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol. 1978 Jun.

Abstract

A test mouthwash, saline rinse, and no treatment were evaluated for their effects on organoleptic mouth odor ratings (OR) and corresponding concentrations of volatile sulfur compounds (VSC) in sixty-two subjects. The mouthwash was significantly superior to the saline rinse and to no treatment in reducing OR and VSC for 3 hours, which was the duration of the study.
