Resumen

Las propiedades biológicas de las plantas siempre han despertado la curiosidad de la comunidad científica ya que desde la antigüedad el hombre ha utilizado la fitoterapia para prevenir y curar enfermedades. Actualmente, numerosos estudios prueban los efectos farmacológicos de los vegetales y sus aplicaciones medicinales van desde el alivio del dolor, control de inflamaciones e infecciones, acción antioxidante hasta acción antitumoral. En odontología, el uso de la fitoterapia ha crecido y se está expandiendo la investigación sobre el uso de derivados vegetales en infecciones periodontales y endodónticas, caries y candidiasis oral, por ejemplo. El objetivo de la presente revisión fue diagnosticar el panorama actual de la investigación sobre fitoterapia en odontología a partir de evidencias científicas presentes en la literatura. Se utilizaron trabajos disponibles en las bases de datos PUBMED, BVS, Google académico y Scielo. En la presente revisión se encontró que se están realizando muchos ensayos in vitro, in vivo y clínicos para probar la eficacia y seguridad de los compuestos vegetales y en odontología se observa que el estudio y uso de la fitoterapia es cada vez más amplio. Entre las principales aplicaciones terapéuticas de las plantas en odontología, podemos mencionar la actividad analgésica, antiinflamatoria, antimicrobiana (incluida la acción antibacteriana y antifúngica) y ansiolítica, y los principales fitoterapéuticos frecuentemente utilizados son: Malva sylvestris, Camellia sinensis, propóleos, Carica papaya, Glycyrrhiza glabra, Valeriana officinalis y Passiflora incarnata. Así, se puede concluir que los beneficios de la fitoterapia en odontología son numerosos y la continuidad de las investigaciones es fundamental para que los productos vegetales lleguen a las clínicas odontológicas de todas las regiones de Brasil.
