Abstract
Two studies were conducted to assess stain accumulation in beagle dogs following four wk of treatments with water or chlorhexidine. Clinical stain assessments were made by two examiners using different grading procedures. Both scoring methods demonstrated increased stain associated with chlorhexidine usage, and the results for both examiners appeared to be reproducible from one study to the other.
