Randomization plan will be generated by the Center for Clincal Studies of the University Hospital of Erlangen. The lab manager will prepare storage boxes, in which exactly 168 lozenges will be stored. Half of the boxes will contain test-lozenges (study group), half or them will contain placebo-lozenges (control group). The storage boxes for the test and the placebo group will be identical and blinded. The storage boxes will be labelled with pseudonyms in accordance to the randomization plan generated by the Center for Clinical Studies. Therefore, study participants will not have knowledge of the group affiliation. The collection of the samples and the measuring of the clinical parameters will be performed by one orthodontist, who will be blinded to the randomization of the study participants.Primary Purpose: Prevention
