ABSTRACT
Dental problems like tooth discoloration, gingivitis, plaque or tartar deposition & halitosis (bad breath) have become most prevalent in the world, which are caused due to poor food habits and lack of awareness regarding the importance of oral hygiene and bad effects to our health if it is not maintained properly. The poly herbo-mineral tooth powder (Balu Herbals tooth powder for healthy teeth) selected to proceed in this research is having many plant extracts in powder form like Thumma (Acacia nilotica), Vepa (Azadirachta indica), Khadira (Acacia Catechu), Neredu (Syzygium cumini), Suddha, Gairikam, Saindhava lavanam (salt), Yestimadhu (Glycyrrhiza glabra), Haritaki (Terminalia chebula), Vibhitaki (Terminalia bellirica), Trikatu churnam, Lavangam oil (clove oil). In order to detect the efficiency of this poly herbo-mineral tooth powder, the 15 volunteers of different age groups with dental problems mentioned above were selected and provided with poly herbo-mineral tooth powder to use for time span of 15 days and checkups were held by regular intervals for 4 times (0th, 2nd, 6th, 10th, 15th days), these reports were compared to control volunteers with same dental problems but using their own routine non- herbal dental product. Results after the comparison of both treatment and control groups are very significant in terms of product capability to cure the dental illness. This poly herbo-mineral tooth powder is efficient in curing discoloration caused due to fluorosis or chewing abusive substances, plaque formation, hence this poly herbo-mineral tooth powder is highly recommended for the maintenance and cure for the dental health.
