Patients were randomly allocated to 4\u00a0groups: manual toothbrush (group TB); toothbrush plus dental floss (group TB\/F); toothbrush plus interdental brushes (group TB\/IDB) and toothbrush plus rubber interdental picks (group TB\/RIDB). Oral hygiene instructions (OHI) were provided at baseline (T\u20107) and at T0 (1\u2010week) then bi\u2010weekly (T14\/T28). At T0, supragingival professional cleaning was delivered.
