Core Tip |
Green tea extract gel, rich in epigallocatechin gallate, outperformed ornidazole gel as an adjunct to scaling and root planing in treating periodontitis, demonstrating superior reduction in probing pocket depths after one month. This study highlights green tea extract’s potential as a natural, effective alternative for localized antimicrobial therapy, offering enhanced anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial benefits for periodontal disease management. Its promising results suggest a shift toward plant-based adjuncts in periodontal care. |
