A system for the measurement of [bacterial] plaque pH in vivo was developed, using an in-dwelling miniature glass electrode. The reliability of the electrode and the closeness of the experimental conditions to natural ones compared favorably with previous techniques for measuring plaque pH. The effect on plaque pH of sucrose and saccharin rinses and a chlorhexidine mouthwash were studied. Continuous small, rapid fluctuations in the pH of both stimulated and resting plaques were consistently observed and larger changes of pH were noted on opening the mouth and swallowing.
