Turmeric has a wide range of dental uses due to the presence of curcumin (a powerful antioxidant that has anti-inflammatory properties) and may help maintain oral health. It also relieves gum swelling and toothache to some extent. Now we will check whether it is possible to treat gingivitis with turmeric or not.
What is the exact meaning of gingival analysis?
The term gum analysis refers to the oral contact of the tooth root surface This condition is characterized by the movement of the gum margin below the cement-enamel junction. In fact, it is the most common and undesirable gum disease and its prevalence increases with age.
Gingival recession can actually affect more than one tooth. This condition is usually painless, but if not treated in time, it can lead to tooth sensitivity, root cavities, root erosion, decay and plaque accumulation. Brushing with too much pressure, grinding teeth, destructive periodontal or gum conditions, untidy teeth and even smoking are the main causes of gum degeneration. In the following, we will explain how to treat gingivitis with turmeric.
Is it possible to treat gingivitis with turmeric?
Not much research has yet been done on whether turmeric can prevent gum disease. But this magical substance has many benefits for oral and dental health. The reason is the presence of a strong antioxidant called curcumin.
Curcumin has anti-cancer, antibacterial, antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties and in addition, it has long been used to maintain oral and dental health by detecting plaque, as a mouthwash and as a pain reliever.
Curcumin also acts as an antioxidant and a protector against free radicals caused by pollutants, cigarette smoke, drugs, diseases and even stress. In addition, turmeric may also be useful in reducing inflammation and bleeding gums.
Despite all these benefits, the dental specialist must first identify the cause of gingivitis and it is possible that this regression is due to an underlying disease, in which case, apart from treatment of gingivitis with turmeric, specialized treatments are needed.
Besides the treatment of gingivitis with turmeric, what are its other benefits?
As mentioned above, curcumin, the active ingredient in turmeric, can have the most health benefits:
- reducing inflammation
Two of the most common oral and dental inflammations are gingivitis and periodontal disease. Gingivitis is a gum disease where you will experience redness and burning. Periodontal disease, also called periodontitis or gum disease, is when the soft tissue of your mouth becomes infected and inflamed.
In this regard, a study showed that apart from treating gingivitis with turmeric, this toothpaste can reduce plaque and inflammation.
- Turmeric and preventing the formation of jafra
Studies have shown that turmeric can reduce the presence of bacteria that cause cavities. There is a technique for sealing teeth protection against cavities, which is called sealant. Using turmeric in combination with this sealant has been a very effective treatment for cavities.– license plate recognition
Turmeric can help show the amount of plaque and its location in the mouth. Your dentist will stain your plaque yellow using the vibrant yellow color of turmeric. Then, using a special light device, your license plate will be visible.
– reduce infection
Turmeric, as a known antibacterial, can be used to reduce infection in root canals.
Summary
In general, the treatment of gingivitis is mainly based on a complete evaluation of the underlying causes and the level of tissue involvement. It goes without saying that if the main cause of the problem is not resolved, the therapeutic interventions will be weakened in the long term.
In other words, dentistry emphasizes the conservative management of gum related problems. Management includes preventive treatment and regular dental visits. Preventive treatment usually includes proper diet and maintenance of oral and dental hygiene.
