      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Triple blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Randomization method: Block randomization
Software used: Random Allocation Software
Type of randomization: Block
Allocation concealment method: Sealed opaque envelopes

An independent colleague not involved in study assessments prepares the block randomization allocation list using Random Allocation Software with alternating block sizes of 4 and 6.
Allocation concealment: Group codes (A and B) are placed in opaque, sequentially numbered, sealed envelopes. These envelopes are opened by someone other than the assessor after the patient's enrollment is finalized and just before the intervention begins, Blinding description: This study was designed as a triple-blind randomized clinical trial. Participants, the surgeon, the outcome assessor, and the statistical analyst were all blinded to group allocation.
To implement blinding, the mouthwashes were packaged by an individual outside the research team who was not involved in treatment, outcome assessment, or data analysis. The mouthwashes were placed in identical bottles in terms of shape, color, volume, and labeling. Each bottle was identified only by a unique code, and the code list was kept with the individual responsible for randomization and was not disclosed until after the statistical analysis was completed.
Participants received mouthwashes based on the assigned codes and were unaware of the type of solution they used. The surgeon and the clinical assessor recording outcome measures also had no access to group allocation. Data recording forms contained only participant codes.
Data collection was performed by a trained assessor who was blinded to treatment allocation. Statistical analysis was conducted using coded data by an analyst who had no knowledge of group identities.</study_design>

      <hc_freetext>Patients undergoing periodontal crown lengthening surgery.</hc_freetext>
      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group:Participants receive a combination mouthwash containing Cetylpyridinium Chloride (CPC) and Tranexamic Acid (TXA) following periodontal surgery. The mouthwash is formulated by the Faculty of Pharmacy, Mashhad University of Medical Sciences. Patients are instructed to use 15 mL of the solution twice daily for 30 seconds, starting 24 hours after surgery, for a total duration of 7 days. The mouthwash is provided in identical coded bottles to maintain blinding. Intervention 2: Control group:Participants receive 0.12% chlorhexidine mouthwash following periodontal surgery. Patients are instructed to use 15 mL of the mouthwash twice daily for 30 seconds, starting 24 hours after surgery, for 7 days. The mouthwash is provided in identical coded bottles similar to the intervention group to maintain blinding.</i_freetext>
