Citrus polyphenol for oral wound healing in oral ulcers and periodontal diseases

Various polyphenolic compounds from plants have been confirmed to have different pharmaceutical functions. The purpose of this study was to evaluate citrus polyphenol (CP) for dental applications. A medium with CP was developed to improve oral wound healing. The CP could be used as a supplemental co...

description Various polyphenolic compounds from plants have been confirmed to have different pharmaceutical functions. The purpose of this study was to evaluate citrus polyphenol (CP) for dental applications. A medium with CP was developed to improve oral wound healing. The CP could be used as a supplemental compound in mouthwash for periodontal diseases. Method: In this study, the metabolic activity and cell toxicity of CP (1%, 0.1%, and 0.01%) for fibroblasts were investigated by MTT and lactate dehydrogenase assays (n = 6). The effect of CP on motility of fibroblast was also evaluated via a wound healing model. Results: The growth of Hs68 cells on TCPS was greatly increased in the presence of 0.01% CP. In addition, the significant difference (p<0.01) of cell toxicity of fibroblast was observed after 6 days in 0.01% CP medium. Using the wound healing model, it was also found that CP could enhance the migratory ability of fibroblasts. Conclusion: The results confirm the feasibility of CP be a supplemental compound in mouthwash for treatment of periodontal diseases in dental application to improve wound healing in the mouth.
