Abstract
Objectives:
Aloe vera and tulsi were compared in this study to see how well they treated oral submucous fibrosis (OSMF).
Materials and method:
The study involved thirty healthy volunteers aged from 20 to 55 without any systemic complications. The patients were given medications that needed to be applied two to three times daily. For four months, patients were followed up with monthly follow-up visits. The differences in the mouth opening and changes to the burning sensation on the visual analog scale (VAS) were statistically analyzed.
Results:
Both the burning sensation and mouth opening showed a statistically significant improvement.
Conclusion:
Tulsi and aloe vera provide a secure and effective method for treating OSMF symptoms.
