Background:The use of mouthwashes is used to chemically control dental plaque and reduce the level of gingivitis in patients with periodontitis. The side effects of chemical mouthwashes have led to the increasing use of herbal mouthwashes. The aim of this study was conducted with the aim of comparing the effect of cardamom herbal mouthwash with 0.2% chlorhexidine on plaque index and gingival inflammation index. Materials and Methods: In this clinical trial study, investigated the number of 23 patients with gingivitis among the patients referred to the department of periodontics,Islamic Azad University of Isfahan. After the initial registration of the indicators (plaque index and inflammation index), each of the patients randomly received a coded mouthwash bottle that could be 0.2% chlorhexidine mouthwash, cardamom mouthwash or placebo. The patients should use 15 cc of the mentioned mouthwashes twice a day for two weeks after brushing their teeth and after 30 seconds to pour the mouthwashes out of their mouths. At the end of the second week, the patients were called and their plaque index and inflammation index were recorded again. Data were analyzed with statistical tests of analysis of variance, Mann-Whitney and LSD Results: The plaque index and the level of gingivitis in the chlorhexidine and cardamom groups were not statistically significant (p>0.05), but a significant difference was observed with the placebo group (p<0.05),and the chlorhexidine and cardamom group had a significantly greater effect than the placebo. Conclusion: The effect of cardamom herbal mouthwash on plaque index and gingivitis index is similar to 0.2% chlorhexidine.
