PURPOSE: This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated the efficacy of natural ingredients used in toothpastes and gels in improving gingival health.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: A comprehensive search strategy using different databases was conducted in accordance with PRISMA guidelines to identify randomized clinical trials (RCTs) on the use of natural ingredients for improving gingival health. Included studies focussed on outcomes measuring gingival health parameters, such as gingival index (GI), or bleeding on probing (BoP). Out of 249 identified studies, 10 RCTs met the inclusion criteria. Formulations included natural ingredients from plant extracts such as Aloe vera or Pudilan, and hydroxyapatite (as tooth-like calcium phosphate).
RESULTS: The meta-analysis demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in gingival health when natural ingredients were used compared to control toothpastes and gels (p=0.0051). These findings suggest that natural ingredients may offer comparable or superior efficacy to conventional oral care products in terms of gingival health. Notably, Aloe vera and hydroxyapatite consistently demonstrated clinical benefits.
CONCLUSIONS: Natural ingredients used in oral care products represent a promising strategy in gingivitis prevention and management. Their use in toothpastes and gels may therefore provide clinicians and patients with evidence-based, well-tolerated alternatives or adjuncts to conventional formulations for maintaining and improving gingival health.
