“…Due to the increasing popularity of Aloe vera L. in medicine and dentistry, its effectiveness in the healing of post extraction sockets was tested. A cross-sectional randomized interventional study conducted on 40 patients demonstrated that the extract from this plant improved postoperative wound healing and decreased the severity of symptoms, compared to only analgesic treatment [Lone et al 2018].…”

“…Being an old surgical puzzle, many different methods have been advocated to treat alveolar osteitis, such as the application of local turmeric [17], zinc oxide eugenol, alvogyl, honey or vitamin C [18], and socket irrigation with hydrogen peroxide [19]. However, these conventional treatment approaches merely solve the symptoms but do not target the key etiology.…”

Background. A dry socket also referred to as alveolar osteitis (AO) is a common postoperative complication following tooth extraction, due to the disruption of the clot within the wound. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of concentrated growth factor (CGF) in the healing of alveolar osteitis following tooth extraction. Methods. The study was conducted at University Dental Hospital Sharjah, UAE. Patients undergoing tooth extraction at the oral surgery clinic were advised to return immediately if they suffer from pain. Over the following first week after tooth extraction, patients who reported pain symptoms were recalled and all dry sockets were identified. The patients were divided into two groups. Group I patients received conventional treatment with socket curettage and saline irrigation only, while in group II CGF was inserted into the socket. Both groups were observed for pain score and quantification of granulation tissue formation. Results. A total of 40 dry socket patients, aged between 18 and 60 years, from a total of 1,250 patients, were included in the study. 30 patients were given conventional treatment while another 10 patients were given CGF. Patients who received CGF had a pain score of 7–10 at presentation, and the pain score dropped to 0–3 on day 4 and further improved to 0-1 on day 7 (p=0.001). Granulation tissue formation appeared in the conventional group I on day 7 while the CGF group II showed earlier granulation tissue formation by day 4 (p=0.001). The posttreatment pain score is inversely proportional to the amount and rate of granulation tissue formation in the socket. Conclusion. The study suggests that delivery of CGF into a dry socket helps relieve pain and expedite the wound healing process as shown by a statistically much lower pain score and earlier and more rapid formation of granulation tissue when compared to the conventional alveolar osteitis therapy.

Role of turmeric in management of alveolar osteitis (dry socket): A randomised clinical study

Abstract: In this study there was significant reduction in pain, inflammation & discomfort after turmeric and ZOE dressing. Wound healing was seen faster, than dressing with ZOE. There is no side effect of Turmeric. Statistical analysis was done p < 0.05, was found statistically significant.
