Half a million different plant species are occurring worldwide, of which only 1% has been phytochemically considered. Thus, there is great potential for discovering novel bioactive compounds. In dentistry, herbal extracts have been used as antimicrobial agents, analgesics, and intracanal medicaments. Glass-ionomer cement (GIC) and bioactive glass (BAG) are attractive materials in dentistry due to their bioactivity, adhesion, and remineralisation capabilities. Thus, this review summarizes the evidence around the use of phytotherapeutics in dental glass-based materials. This review article covers the structure, properties, and clinical uses of GIC and BAG materials within dentistry, with an emphasis on all the attempts that have been made in the last 20 years to enhance their properties naturally using the wisdom of traditional medicines. An extensive electronic search was performed across four databases to include published articles in the last 20 years and the search was concerned only with the English language publications. Publications that involved the use of plant extracts, and their active compounds for the green synthesis of nanoparticles and the modification of GIC and BAG were included up to May 2023. Plant extracts are a potential and effective candidate for modification of different properties of GIC and BAG, particularly their antimicrobial activities. Moreover, natural plant extracts have shown to be very effective in the green synthesis of metal ion nanoparticles in an ecological, and easy way with the additional advantage of a synergistic effect between metal ions and the phytotherapeutic agents. Medicinal plants are considered an abundant, cheap source of biologically active compounds and many of these phytotherapeutics have been the base for the development of new lead pharmaceuticals. Further research is required to assess the safety and the importance of regulation of phytotherapeutics to expand their use in medicine. Graphical Abstract

Существующие добавки к реставрационным материалам, используемым в области терапевтической стоматологии и зубных протезов, ортодонтических аппаратов и адгезивов (например, наночастицы металлов и их оксидов), а также добавки к ирригантам корневых каналов, применяемым в эндодонтии, и ополаскивателям полости рта могут быть токсичны для человека, вызывать аллергические реакции, накапливаться в органах и тканях. На сегодняшний день актуальна разработка нетоксичных для человека стоматологических материалов, оказывающих антимикробное действие. Перспективной альтернативой указанным выше добавкам являются фитодобавки, в том числе экстракты растений и прополиса, поскольку они дешевы и нетоксичны для человека. Данный обзор посвящен природным антимикробным добавкам к стоматологическим материалам, используемым в ортодонтии, протезировании, терапевтической стоматологии и эндодонтии. В обзоре даны рекомендации в отношении дополнительных исследований, необходимых для внедрения рассмотренных стоматологических материалов (пломбировочных материалов, ополаскивателей полости рта, ортодонтических адгезивов и ортопедических изделий), изучено влияние антимикробных добавок на физико-химические и физико-механические свойства полимерных стоматологических материалов, описаны преимущества и недостатки природных добавок по сравнению с синтетическими. Отмечается, что основными проблемами в данной области исследований является ограниченный набор микроорганизмов, в отношении которых изучалось антимикробное действие, в основном <i>S. mutans, E. faecalis, C. albicans</i>, а также преобладание исследований in vitro над клиническими. В обзоре рассматриваются статьи, опубликованные за последние пять лет. <br> Библиография — 123 ссылки.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
