Main Article Content
Abstract
Effectiveness of the use of propolis in the treatment of aphtous stomatitis.This study was intended to evaluate the effectiveness of 5% propolis tinction for the treatment of aphtous stomatitis. A phase II randomized clinical assay was conducted on 2 groups of patients of both sexes aged 15-44 years, which were diagnosed with aphtous stomatitis. The study group was treated with 5% propolis tinction whereas the control group was applied the standard treatment. It was concluded that a rapid, low cost and easy-to-apply method like the 5% propolis tinction therapy yielded highly satisfactory results in treating aphtous stomatitis.
