Overview

Herbs have been an integral part of traditional medicine for centuries, offering natural and holistic approaches to health care. In dentistry, the use of herbs has gained significant attention due to their antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antioxidant, and wound-healing properties. This book explores the wide range of medicinal plants and their applications in oral health, including the prevention and management of dental caries, gingivitis, periodontitis, halitosis, pulp and periapical diseases, as well as their role in postoperative care. It highlights herbs such as clove, neem, turmeric, aloe vera, green tea, and licorice, discussing their bioactive compounds, mechanisms of action, and clinical relevance. Emphasis is placed on the advantages of herbal formulations, including reduced side effects, biocompatibility, and cost-effectiveness, while also addressing limitations and the need for further scientific validation. By bridging traditional wisdom with modern evidence-based dentistry, this work underscores the potential of herbs as promising adjuncts to conventional dental therapies, paving the way for safer, sustainable, and patient-friendly oral health care.
