Resumo: The insertion of herbal medicines in the form of mouthwashes for preventive and curative use in dentistry is a viable and promising alternative, due to the ease of access and costs. Plantago major is a medicinal plant whose leaves are used for inflammation of the mouth and oropharynx, as an antibacterial agent and antifungal agent. The use as a mouthwash has been implemented, being an adjunct to mechanical oral hygiene procedures. The objective was to report the effect of the Plantago major 7% aqueous solution as a daily mouthwash, in the control of dental biofilm and gingivitis. The patient reported pain in teeth 11 and 21, and gingival bleeding during oral hygiene. Clinical examination revealed active carious lesions, swollen gingival tissue with hyperemic areas. To characterize the clinical picture, the Lobene dental staining index, Löe & Silness gingival index and Turesky plaque index were applied. Areas with light stain, mild and moderate gingival inflammation (bleeding under pressure) and high scores on the Turesky plaque index were detected. After adequacy of the oral environment and dental prophylaxis, the patient was asked to rinse 10 mL of the Plantago major 7% solution, 2 times/day, for 1 month. Weekly clinical controls were performed. After 1 month, there was an absence of stains, a significant reduction in gingival inflammation and plaque rates, with no bleeding. There were no side effects. It was concluded that the Plantago major solution had an effective therapeutic profile in the control of dental biofilm, helping to restore oral health.

Plantago major es una planta medicinal utilizada para la inflamación bucal y orofaríngea, como agente antibacteriano y antifúngico. Se ha implementado el uso como enjuague bucal, siendo un complemento de los procedimientos mecánicos de higiene bucal. El objetivo fue reportar el efecto de la solución acuosa de Plantago major al 7% como enjuague bucal diario, en el control del biofilm dental y la gingivitis. El paciente refirió dolor en los dientes 11 y 21 y sangrado gingival durante la higiene bucal. El examen clínico reveló lesiones cariosas activas, tejido gingival inflamado con áreas hiperémicas. Para caracterizar el cuadro clínico se aplicaron el índice de tinción dental de Lobene, el índice gingival de Löe & Silness y el índice de placa de Turesky. Se detectaron áreas con manchas leves, inflamación gingival leve y moderada (sangrado bajo presión) y puntuaciones altas en el índice de placa de Turesky. Después de la adecuación del ambiente oral y la profilaxis dental, se solicitó al paciente que enjuagara 10 mL de la solución de Plantago major al 7%, 2 veces al día, durante 1 mes. Se realizaron controles clínicos semanales. Después de 1 mes, hubo ausencia de tinciones, una reducción significativa de la inflamación gingival y las tasas de placa, sin sangrado. No hubo efectos secundarios. Se concluyó que la solución principal de Plantago major tenía un perfil terapéutico eficaz en el control del biofilm dental, ayudando a restaurar la salud bucal.A inserção de fitoterápicos na forma de colutórios para uso preventivo e curativo na Odontologia é uma alternativa viável e promissora, pela facilidade de acesso e custos. A Plantago major é uma planta medicinal utilizada para inflamações bucais e orofaringe, como agente antibacteriano e antifúngico. Tem-se implementado a utilização como colutório, sendo coadjuvante dos procedimentos mecânicos de higiene oral. O objetivo foi relatar o efeito da solução aquosa de Plantago major à 7 % como colutório diário, no controle do biofilme dental e gengivite. O paciente relatou dor nos dentes 11 e 21, e sangramento gengival durante a higienização bucal. Ao exame clínico foram observadas lesões cariosas ativas, tecido gengival edemaciado com áreas hiperemicas. Para caracterizar o quadro clínico foi aplicado o índice de manchamento dentário de Lobene, índice gengival de Löe & Silness e o índice de placa bacteriana de Turesky. Foram detectadas áreas com manchas leves, inflamação gengival suave e moderada (sangramento sob pressão), e altos escores no índice de placa bacteriana de Turesky. Após adequação do meio bucal e profilaxia dental foi solicitado que o paciente bochechasse 10 mL da solução de Plantago major à 7 %, 2 vezes/dia, por 1 mês. Foram realizados controles clínicos semanais. Após 1 mês, foi observada ausência de manchas, redução significativa nos índices da inflamação gengival e de placa bacteriana, com ausência de sangramento. Não houveram efeitos colaterais. Concluiu-se que a solução de Plantago major apresentou perfil terapêutico efetivo no controle do biofilme dental, auxiliando no restabelecimento da saúde bucal.Research, Society and Development2021-01-15info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/1149110.33448/rsd-v10i1.11491Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 No. 1; e29610111491Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 Núm. 1; e29610111491Research, Society and Development; v. 10 n. 1; e296101114912525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/11491/10537Copyright (c) 2021 Jadson Araújo; Máx Dobrovolski; Vitoldo Antônio Kozlowski Júnior; Márcia Rezendehttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAraújo, JadsonDobrovolski, MáxKozlowski Júnior, Vitoldo AntônioRezende, Márcia2021-02-20T21:19:23Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/11491Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:33:18.266033Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
