Chronic periodontitis is a chronic infectious disease that causes the loss of teeth in adults in China. Treatment for it mainly includes periodontal scaling, scraping, periodontal surgery, and local or systemic antibiotics. This article therefore reviews the different natural remedies used in the treatment of periodontitis, which has antibacterial, antiviral and immunomodulatory effects. This article therefore reviews the different natural remedies used in the treatment of periodontitis.
