Aloe in natural state crystals vs. Bidens in mouthwashes for the treatment of subprosthesis stomatitis
Abstract
Introduction: subprosthesis stomatitis is the most frequent disease in dentistry services.
Objective: to evaluate the effectiveness of Aloe vera and Bidens pilosa L in the treatment of subprosthesis stomatitis.
Method: a randomized phase IV clinical trial was carried out on 156 patients who met the pre-established criteria, treated in the Prosthesis Departments of the Teaching Dental Clinic "Dr. Luis Páez Alfonso” and “Raúl Ortiz” Community Polyclinic, during 2018. The population was distributed by systematic sampling into two groups of 78, homogeneous in number and degree of injury. Group A was prescribed aloe, topically, and group B was indicated romerillo (Bidens) cold mouthwashes. In both, the prostheses were removed during the 15 days of treatment. An evolutionary clinical follow-up was carried out and descriptive and inferential statistics were used. Ethical precepts were followed.
Results: the disease predominated in the female sex (57,05 %) and in the group of 60 years and over (50,00 %). Grade II predominated in both groups (62,82 % in A, and 61,54 % in B). At the end of the treatment, the patients healed regardless of the degree of involvement and the group: 87,76 % of group A with an average time of 7,4 days and 85,42 % of group B with an average time of 9,18 days. No adverse reactions were reportedDownloads
