Use of Natural Products in the Prevention and Treatment of Denture Stomatitis: OAJBS Publishers
Use of Natural Products in the Prevention and Treatment of Denture Stomatitis by Karin Hermana Neppelenbroek in Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science
Despite
the wide variety of antifungal agents for the denture stomatitis (DS)
treatment, they may induce hepatotoxic and nephrotoxic effects, allergic
reactions and interactions with other medicaments, besides the emergence of
antifungal resistance to the most commonly used classes of drugs. For these
reasons, natural products present as an interesting therapeutic alternative.
This narrative review summarizes the use of main natural products in the prevention
and treatment of DS, which are obtained from propolis, Pelargonium graveolens,
Equisetum giganteum, Punica granatum, and Melaleuca alternifolia. These
substances are of ancient use in the medical field and, recently, have been
widely reported in different dental specialties, mainly for their
anti-inflammatory and antifungal action. Despite the favourable results
obtained in the literature with such substances, the scientific evidence for
the use of natural products in Dentistry, especially for the purpose of DS
therapy is not conclusive, requiring further clinical studies to consolidate
their application.
