Abstract

ABSTRACT:In this era of emergence of superbugs, one is in dire need of treatment modalities that treat a patient without hampering the microflora and immunity status. Traditional medicines like herbal by-products are currently being researched over and reintroduced in the commercial market as old wine in new bottles. This paper highlights the use of such plant products in dentistry, short-termed as "Phytomedicines".
