“…Mucoadhesive gel preparations are generally more effective for oral mucosal ulceration lesion therapy [40], but mostly in all the articles we reviewed Aloe vera was tested in the form of mouthwash or solution preparations. The use of mouthwash preparations for OM therapy will be more effective to cover a large area of lesions [41], while the gel will be more effective because it can be directly registered on localized lesions [42].…”

This review aims to analyse the potency of Aloe vera for Oral Mucositis (OM) therapy. Articles searched using the keywords “Oral Mucositis” AND “Aloe vera”, conducted through PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Cochrane Library databases, and adapted to the PICO (Population, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome) framework. The inclusion criteria for articles were: Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) study design; in English; full paper available; published in the range between 2011-2021 and with low risk of bias. RoB-tools JADAD Oxford Quality Scoring System was used. This paper writing refers to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-analysis (PRISMA) guidelines. A total of 5 (five) articles met the criteria for a qualitative review and all showed a high range of quality articles. It was found that both Aloe vera solution 70% and Aloe vera gel 10% showed a reduction of radiotherapy or chemotherapy-induced oral mucositis grade. Aloe vera mouthwash has an equal anti-inflammation effect compare to benzydamine on the patient with radiotherapy-induced oral mucositis, whereas the use of other formula containing Aloe vera with other herbal materials did not show an anti-inflammatory effect. Drug formulation containing Aloe vera can be used as an alternative therapy in the management of Oral Mucositis (OM) with anti-inflammatory potency that can reduce pain and the severity of oral mucositis.

“…Mouthwashes or mouth rinses are liquid formulations used for oral hygiene, including the mitigation of pathogenic bacteria, eradication of malodors, provision of therapeutic effects, and prevention of infection and dental caries (Barnett, 2006;Krishnamurthy & Vijayasarathy, 2016). They contain active ingredients such as antimicrobial agents, surfactants, flavoring agents, and preservatives (Choulis, 2014).…”

Mouthwashes provide an important means for improving oral hygiene. This study investigated the psychophysiological effects of mouthwashes with different binders during the recovery after a short-term stressor. In a withinsubject experimental design, 21 healthy adults used four mouthwashes; MW A (no binder), MW B (Sodium alginate 0.16%), MW C (Sodium alginate 0.32%), and MW D (Xanthan gum 0.08%), after a 20-minute calculation task. Subjective evaluations and physiological responses including skin conductance level and electrocardiogram were recorded throughout the experiment. MW C exhibited an increased high-frequency (HF) component of heart rate variability (HRV) during recovery, and a significant difference in "strength of thickness" compared to other mouthwashes. MW D showed a greater decrease in heart rate and increased HF component of HRV compared to MW B. The findings suggest that mouthwashes with higher thickness levels effectively promote recovery from the physiological stress response, and are potentially suitable for relaxation purposes.

“…Mouthwashes, integral to oral care, are liquid products designed to enhance oral hygiene. These solutions are used by individuals to supplement their regular dental care routines, targeting various oral concerns such as bad breath, bacteria control, and gum health ( 16 , 17 ). They are formulated with active ingredients, including antimicrobial agents and fluoride, alongside flavoring agents like menthol, mint, citrus, or herbal extracts, providing a refreshing sensation ( 18 ).…”

BackgroundMouthwashes play a pivotal role in oral care, and their efficacy has been explored extensively across various dimensions. As a contribution to the development of novel oral care products, this study aims to investigate the psychophysiological effects of aromatic mouthwashes during the resilience period from a short-term cognitive stressor utilizing biological signals and subjective evaluations.MethodsA within-participant experimental design with 22 healthy females was conducted with four mouthwashes; peppermint (Mint), peppermint + bergamot (MB), peppermint + sweet orange (MO), and peppermint + lavender (ML), and water as the control (Ctl), after a 20-min calculation task. Subjective evaluations and physiological responses including skin conductance level and electrocardiogram were recorded throughout the experiment.ResultsCitrus mouthwashes (MO and MB) showed a greater decrease in heart rate and a significant increase in the high-frequency component of heart rate variability. The participants indicated a significant effect in terms of “flavor preference” and “refreshing sensation” for mouthwash use compared to the Ctl.ConclusionThe results suggest that rinsing with citrus-flavored mouthwashes has a positive impact in alleviating the physiological stress response (in terms of cardiac activity). These findings may have implications for the development of innovative, novel oral care products that promote stress reduction and improve oral health.
