“…It has been reported that the vast majority of green and black tea is imported, with a yearly consumption of 2000 tonnes. [ 1 ] Tea contains almost 4000 bioactive compounds, one-third of which are made up of polyphenols. Green and black tea are rich in polyphenolic compounds, primarily flavonoids such as catechins, epicatechin gallate (ECG), epicatechin (EC), epigallocatechin (EGC) and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG).…”

“…Flavonoids have been found to possess antioxidant activity; however, the hypothesis that dietary flavonoids can reduce oxides significantly is still not clear. [ 1 2 ] Other compounds are alkaloids, amino acids, carbohydrates, proteins, chlorophyll, organic volatile compounds, fluoride, aluminium, minerals and trace elements that easily generate vapours and contribute to the aroma of the tea.…”

Green tea has protective effects against various diseases such as malignancies, cardiovascular and metabolic disorders. Green tea has been suggested to promote periodontal health by reducing inflammation, preventing the resorption of bones and restricting the growth of certain periodontal-related bacteria. Green tea has antioxidant, carcinogenic, antimicrobial and non-inflammatory properties. This traditional drink is also used to treat systemic chronic diseases, including carcinoma. Recent studies have shown that host immuno-inflammatory reactions, in addition to microbial activity, are more likely to destroy oral tissues. In such cases, green tea is considered to be a natural preventive and curative agent. The potential benefits of green tea and its polyphenols in oral health is capturing the interest of the researchers; hence, this review discusses the therapeutic effects of green tea in the prevention of periodontal and oral diseases.

Background: Free radicals are molecules without any electron pairs, unstable, and highly reactive. Antioxidants are needed to reduce free radicals. Antioxidants provide various benefits in dentistry as a preventive agent for caries, healing, bone formation, mouthwash, preventive and therapeutic cancer, and reduction of periodontal disease progressions. Additionally, research on antioxidants is still undergone due to the existence of free radical residues on bleached teeth. Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), ascorbic acid (AA), and sodium ascorbate (SA) are ingridients that have antioxidant properties. Antioxidants can be in two forms solution and gel. Solutions have a higher substance releasing power than gel. Gel is extremely adhesive, so it does not flow easily. Meanwhile, solutions are rather unstable because it flows easily. Antioxidant activities were evaluated with 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) Assay method. Purpose: Analyzing through literature reviews the potential antioxidants of EGCG, AA, and SA in solution and gel forms by DPPH Assay. Reviews: There were eight journal articles used in this review. The first article described antioxidant solutions in which EGCG was higher than sodium ascorbate. The second article showed that antioxidant gel EGCG was lower than sodium ascorbate. The third journal explained that ascorbic acid was higher than sodium ascorbate both in solution and gel forms. The other articles provided some information about the antioxidant activity percentages of EGCG, SA, and AA in the forms of gel and solutions by DPPH assay. Conclusion: EGCG has a higher antioxidant activity than SA, but it is lower when compared to AA in both solution and gel forms by DPPH assay.

Background: Tooth discoloration can be treated with dental bleaching using Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Dental bleaching may interfere with the shear bond strength of composite resins because the remaining free radicals can affect bonding polymerization. Epigallocatcehin-3-gallate (EGCG) as an antioxidant can neutralize the free radicals produced during bleaching process. Purpose: Analyze the role of EGCG antioxidants in increasing the shear bond strength of composite resin after bleaching.. Reviews: Of the seven journals included in this literature review, six journals reported significant difference, and one journal noted no significant difference in the shear bond strength of composite resin following the EGCG application. Conclusion: The use of EGCG can increase the shear bond strength value of post-bleaching composite resin restorations.
