ABSTRACT

Periodontal disease is one of the important causes of tooth loss in young adults, and the treatment process is long and prone to recurrence, which seriously endangers human oral health. At present, Western medicine treats periodontal disease mostly for local cleaning treatment, coupled with antibiotics such as chlorhexidine and spiramycin to inhibit bacteria and reduce inflammation. However, the long-term application of such drugs is bound to destroy the oral flora, resulting in an increase in drug resistance and reducing clinical efficacy. In contrast, Chinese medicine is guided by a holistic view, emphasizing the unity of teeth and the meridians of the human body's internal organs, connecting parts with the whole, dispelling evil spirits, removing standards, and correcting and consolidating the foundation. It has accumulated rich experience in the prevention and treatment of oral diseases, and has a variety of treatment methods. In addition, TCM's unique external treatment methods such as acupuncture, gargling, tooth rubbing, etc. also provide more methods for the treatment of periodontal disease.
