The studio has won the first Award from the Spanish Society of Periodontology and Osseointegration (SEPA) 2021 for the Best Poster Format Communication presented by hygienists at the latest edition of the SEPA Congress, held in Seville from November 25 to 27.
Rosa Tarragó Gil, oral hygienist and principal investigator of this trial, considers that The mouth represents a potential source of SARS-CoV2 infection, for being a entry and exit door of the virus, and therefore believes that the use of CPC in mouthwashes "could be useful to reduce the viral load, and this could impact the reduction of the pathogenicity and transmission of COVID-19."
It has been shown that these mouthwashes with CPC break down the virus and, therefore, reduced the viral load and, also, the transmissibility of the SARS-CoV-2 virus in the mouth of the positive patient, so it has been demonstrated as one more preventive measure to combat the pandemic, along with the mask and the distancing social.
