Brief Summary:
This study evaluates the adjunctive use of Centella Asiatica (gotukola) to scaling in the reduction of plaque and gingival inflammation. Patients were divided into three groups of which group 1 received scaling and gotukola mouthwash, group 2 received scaling only and group 3 received gotukola mouthwash only.
Detailed Description:
Mechanical plaque control by tooth brushing is considered to be the ideal way of preventing plaque associated gingivitis. However due to various factors individuals fail to perform an adequate quality of self performed plaque control. Centella Asiatica (gotukola) possess wide range of biological activities like anti-inflammatory, anti-psoriatic, anti-ulcer, hepato-protective, anticonvulsant, immunostimulant, cardioprotective, antidiabetic, antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, etc. So, it could be used as adjunctive to mechanical periodontal therapy.
