Diş hastalıklarının artan prevalansı ve ağız boşlukları ile ilgili hastalıklar artık dünya çapında dikkate değer bir sorun haline gelmiştir. Hastaların farklı çözüm yolları aramalarında; konvansiyonel tıpta özellikle psikiyatrik ve bazı kronik hastalıkların tedavisinin bulunmayışı, mevcut tedavinin yan etkilerinin fazlalığı, konvansiyonel tıp tedavisine ulaşmanın fiziki zorlukları ve teknolojinin gelişmesiyle birlikte tedavi ücretlerinin artması sebep olarak görülmüştür. İnsanlar tarafından geleneksel ve tamamlayıcı tıp uygulamalarının kullanımı, iyi terapötik etkinlik, düşük yan etkiler gibi avantajları ve sentetik ürünlere göre maliyetinin daha ucuz olması nedeniyle oldukça sık tercih edilmektedir. Bu derlemenin amacı; ağız ve diş sağlığında geleneksel ve tamamlayıcı tıp uygulamaları olarak kullanılan bitkisel ürünler, apiterapi, hirudoterapi, aromaterapi, hipnoterapi, akupunktur, ayurveda ve homeopati uygulamaları hakkında bilgi vermektir.

Literatür taraması için Proquest, Google Scholar ve Google’da arama yapıldı.

Yapılan literatür taraması sonucunda; ağız ve diş sağlığında kullanılan geleneksel ve tamamlayıcı tıp uygulamaları ile ilgili çalışmaların sınırlı olduğu görülmüştür. Bu konuda daha fazla çalışmalar yapılarak, ilgili uygulamaların güvenlik ve etkinlik açısından netleştirilmesi gerektiğini düşünmekteyiz.

Traditional and Complementary Medicine Practices in Oral and Dental Health

Öz

The increasing prevalence of dental diseases and diseases related to oral cavities has now become a notable problem worldwide. The reasons why patients seek different solutions are seen as the lack of treatment for psychiatric and some chronic diseases in conventional medicine, the abundance of side effects of existing treatment, the physical difficulties of accessing conventional medical treatment, and the increase in treatment costs with the development of technology. The use of traditional and complementary medicine practices is frequently preferred by people due to their advantages such as good therapeutic efficacy, low side effects and lower cost compared to synthetic products. The purpose of this review is to provide information about herbal products, apitherapy, hirudotherapy, aromatherapy, hypnotherapy, acupuncture, ayurveda and homeopathy applications used as traditional and complementary medicine practices in oral and dental health.

For the literature review, Proquest, Google Scholar and Google were searched.

As a result of the literature review, it was seen that studies on traditional and complementary medicine practices used in oral and dental health were conducted but were limited. We believe that further studies should be conducted on this subject, to clarify these practices in terms of safety and effectiveness.
