Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a serious health threat that infects approximately half of the global population. In addition to colonizing the stomach, H. pylori has been shown to survive in the oral microenvironment and is associated with a variety of oral diseases, gastric eradication failure, and reinfection. Currently, traditional systemic antibiotic therapy has little effect on oral H. pylori, and mouthwashes available on the market for oral H. pylori eradication often contain multiple antibiotics or complex essential ingredients, which can cause unpredictable effects on the human body. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a mouthwash that does not contain antibiotics and is effective against oral H. pylori. This study focuses on the eradication effect of MAXPOWER Biological Antibacterial mouthwash on oral H. pylori in a population.
Inclusion criteria: oral H. pylori-positive patients, verified by H. pylori saliva test (HPS),aged 18-70 years visiting the outpatient clinic of Changhai Hospital from March 1, 2023, to August 1, 2023, were enrolled. Exclusion criteria: (1) Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, gastric cancer, upper gastrointestinal bleeding, or active peptic ulcer; (2) the coexistence of significant concomitant illnesses, including heart diseases, renal failure, hepatic disease, previous abdominal surgery, lactation or pregnancy; and (3) not willing to participate in the study. Written informed consent was obtained from all patients prior to participation in the study.

RECRUITINGOral H. pylori eradication rate
We tested patients for oral H. pylori using H. pylori saliva test (HPS) to .HPS is a lateral flow immunochromatographic test device that uses saliva as testing sample detecting oral H. pylori within few minutes. The principle of HPS is based on monoclonal antibody react with oral urease produced by H. pylori.
