“…132,194,195 For these properties, aloe vera was considered in dentistry to treat many oral diseases such as lichen planus, oral submucous fibrosis, stomatitis, alveolar osteitis, and periodontitis. 132,[194][195][196][197][198][199][200][201] As a consequence of aloe vera's properties, various studies were made to evaluate the efficacy of treatment in periodontitis. Kurian et al 202 2018 did a randomized clinical trial of 90 volunteers distributed in three groups, one group was given SRP and placebo gel, the second one was given SRP + 1% metformin gel, and the third one was given SRP + aloe vera gel.…”

Periodontitis is a persistent inflammation of the soft tissue around the teeth that affects 60% of the population in the globe. The self-maintenance of the inflammatory process can cause periodontal damage from the alveolar bone resorption to tooth loss in order to contrast the effects of periodontitis, the main therapy used is scaling and root planing (SRP). At the same time, studying the physiopathology of periodontitis has shown the possibility of using a local drug delivery system as an adjunctive therapy. Using local drug delivery devices in conjunction with SRP therapy for periodontitis is a potential tool since it increases drug efficacy and minimizes negative effects by managing drug release. This review emphasized how the use of local drug delivery agents and natural agents could be promising adjuvants for the treatment of periodontitis patients affected or not by cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and other system problems. Moreover, the review evidences the current issues and new ideas that can inspire potential later study for both basic research and clinical practice for a tailored approach.

Aim: The aim of the study was to evaluate in-vitro α-amylase inhibitory activity, α-glucosidase inhibitory activity and glucose diffusion inhibition activity of various leaf extracts of Phoenix roebelenii. Materials and Methods: P. roebelenii leaf extracts were prepared by maceration in ethanol, methanol, water, acetone, and petroleum ether. The extracts were used for evaluating their α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibitory activity using dinitrosalicylic acid method. The results were compared with standard drug acarbose. Glucose diffusion was studied using dialysis membrane method. Results: The ethanolic extract showed maximum inhibitory activity for both α-amylase (75.5 ± 0.66%) and α-glucosidase (77.5 ± 1.07%) at 400 µg/ml in a concentration dependent manner. Methanolic extract showed nearly similar activity. Acarbose showed 80.7 ± 0.74% inhibition for α-amylase and 80.2 ± 0.23% for α-glucosidase at 400 µg/ml. The ethanolic and methanolic extracts also showed a significant amount of inhibition of glucose across a dialysis membrane. Conclusion: The plant can be further studied to isolate the compound(s) responsible for the antidiabetic properties.
