Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to evaluate and compare the stain build up of two stannous fluoride (SnF2) / sodium tripolyphosphate (STP) dentifrices of differing abrasivity levels, with a marketed standard fluoride dentifrice and a marketed SnF2 dentifrice.
Detailed Description: This proof of principal (PoP) single centre, randomised, examiner blind, four-treatment arm, parallel design study will be used to evaluate and compare the stain buildup of two 0.454% SnF2/ 5% STP dentifrices of differing abrasivity levels, with a marketed standard fluoride dentifrice and a marketed SnF2 dentifrice. Stain will be assessed following a full professional dental prophylaxis, at intervals over a 4 week treatment period, using an established clinical measure of extrinsic dental stain - the MacPherson modification of the Lobene stain index (MLSI). Participants will be stratified by pre-prophylaxis MLSI score (total MLSI Area x Intensity (A×I) for the facial surfaces of the 12 anterior teeth) and smoking status. The study will be conducted in healthy participants with a propensity for extrinsic dental stain (in the opinion of the examiner) on the facial surfaces of the anterior teeth.
