Thirty two patients received 3 min of oral cleaning using an essential oil solution (mixture of tea tree, <jats:italic>Melaleuca alternifolia<\/jats:italic>, peppermint, <jats:italic>Mentha piperita<\/jats:italic> and lemon, <jats:italic>Citrus limon<\/jats:italic>) on the first day, and Tantum (benzydamine hydrochloride) on the second day. Two trained nurses measured the level of malodour with a 10 cm visual analogue scale (VAS) and VSC with a Halimeter before (Pre), 5 min after (Post I) and 1 h following treatment (Post II). The level of oral malodour was significantly different following the essential oil session, and differed significantly between two sessions at Post I (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.005) and Post II (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.001). Differences between the two sessions were significant (Tantum, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.001; essential oil, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.001) in the level of VSC and significantly lower in the essential oil session than Tantum at the Post II (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.05). These findings suggest that mouth care using an essential oil mixture of diluted tea tree, peppermint and lemon may be an effective method to reduce malodour and VSC in intensive care unit patients.
