Sisebenzisa izinhlobo ezimbili zesixubho sikagesi kanye nohlobo olulodwa lwesixubho esivamile esenziwe ngesandla, siqhathanise ukusebenza kahle kwazo ekususeni uqwembe ngokwesifunda kanye nangaphezulu kwamazinyo, ukuze sinqume ukuthi yiluphi uhlobo lwebhulashi olufaneleka kakhulu esigulini esithile kanye nesifunda esithile.Izifundo zalolu cwaningo bekungabantu abangu-11 sebebonke okuhlanganisa abezimo eziphuthumayo balo mnyango kanye nabafundi abafundela amazinyo.Babephilile ngokomtholampilo bengenazo izinkinga ezinkulu ze-gingival.Izifundo zacelwa ukuthi zixube amazinyo ngohlobo ngalunye lwezinhlobo ezintathu zokuxubha amasonto amabili zigijima;bese kuba olunye uhlobo lwebhulashi amasonto amabili ngaphezulu ingqikithi yamasonto ayisithupha.Ngemva kokuphela kwesikhathi sesivivinyo samasonto amabili ngasinye, ama-plaque deposits alinganiswa futhi ahlolwa ngokwe-Plaque Index (Sillnes & Löe, 1967: PlI).Ukuze kube lula, indawo yomgodi womlomo yahlukaniswa yaba izifunda eziyisithupha futhi amaphuzu e-plaque acutshungulwa indawo ngesayithi.Kutholakale ukuthi awukho umehluko obalulekile ngokwezibalo ku-Plaque Index phakathi kwezinhlobo ezintathu ezahlukene zesixubho sezizonke.Kodwa-ke, ukusetshenziswa kwamabhulashi kagesi kwakhiqiza imiphumela efiselekayo ezifundweni zazo izinkomba ze-plaque zaziphakeme kakhulu lapho zisebenzisa ibhulashi lemanuwali.Ezifundeni ezithile ezithile nendawo yamazinyo, izixubho zikagesi bezisebenza kakhulu kunebhulashi lemanuwali.Lokhu okutholakele kusikisela ukuthi kulezo ziguli ezihluphekayo ekususeni ama-plaque kahle ngesixubho sezandla ukusetshenziswa kwesixubho sikagesi kufanele kunconywe.
