 Oral Care and Aloe






Vera Gel

The mouth is a cavity that is loaded with

soft and fragile tissues. These tissues have

a constant supply of food materials which

make it an ideal breeding ground for bacteria.

The bacterial thriving in the mouth also attack the

teeth and cause dental problems like stomatitis,

bad breath, gingivitis and periodontitis. Aloe

Vera is a natural anti-fungal and anti-bacterial

plant. It can work wonders for dental health

and protect the sensitive fragile tissues of the

mouth when consumed internally.

The Use of Aloe Vera in Dentistry

Extract taken from an article published by Dr Richard Sudworth.

BDS, LDS, RCS (Eng)

The dental uses of Aloe Vera are multiple. It

is extremely helpful in the treatment of gum

disease - gingivitis and periodontitis. It reduces

swelling of the soft tissues and consequently

this reduces the bleeding of the gums. It is

powerfully antiseptic in gum pockets where

normal cleaning is difficult.

Its anti-fungal properties help greatly in the

problem of denture stomatitis, ie. red and sore

mucous membranes which are permanently

covered by a denture - this is a form of thrush.

Cracked and split corners of the mouth are

also subject to fungal infection and this can be

cured by Aloe.

Its anti-viral properties help in the treatment

of cold sores (Herpes Simplex) and shingles

(Herpes Zoster). It is a powerful healing

promoter and when inserted into extraction

sockets, is very beneficial. It can be used in

any surgical wound. It has a use in root canal

treatment as a sedative dressing, healing

promoter and file lubricant.

Aloe Vera a boon for the dentist:

By Dr. Timothy E. Moore, M.S., PC. Oklahoma

University, Baylor University, and Loma Linda

There are eight main uses of Aloe Vera in

dental practice:

1. Application of Aloe Vera directly at the site

of periodontal surgery.

2. Applications to the gum tissues when they

18

have been traumatized or scratched by

toothbrush, sharp foods, dental floss, and

toothpick injuries.

3. Chemical burns are relieved quickly with

the use of Aloe.

4. Site of tooth extraction responds more

comfortably when treated with Aloe.

5. Acute mouth lesions such as herpetic

viral lesions, apthous ulcers, cancer sores,

and cracks occurring at the corners of

lips are improved by direct application of

Aloe. Gum abscesses are soothed by the

applications as well.

6. Diseases such as Lichen Planus and Benign

Pemephigus , AlDS and Leukemia are also

relieved. Migratory glossititis, geographic

tongue and Burning Mouth Syndrome are

improved.

7. Denture patients with sore ridges and ill-

fitting dentures and partials can benefit

as funguses and bacterial contamination

reduce the inflammatory irritations.

8. Aloe Vera can also be used around dental

implants to control inflammation from

bacterial contamination.

Skin Care And Aloe Vera Gel

  Skin Care and Aloe Vera Gel ver the past tWo decades, skin care has advanced at a rate rivaling that of technology. Just as it used to be enough for cell phones to simply make phone calls, it used to be enough for skin care products to simply cleanse, tone and moisturize. Those days are long gone. As baby boomers started showing the first signs of aging, they demanded more of their skin care products. They insisted on multi-tasking formulas that could reduce fine lines and wrinkles, firm sagging skin and make dul| complexions lustrous again. Recently, the cosmetics performance bar has been raised. Now, it's not enough to simply minimize the signs of aging. Today's savvy customers want to prevent one of its main causes--skin-degrading pollutants-before it takes its toll. That trend is evidenced by the flood of mass market and natural anti-pollution skin care products hitting the shelves in recent years. Unfortunately, in the rush to incorporate the latest new fad ingredients i...
