Abstract
The importance has been given to Dental hygiene to maintain health and beauty. The healthy teeth are very much necessary for healthy body. The disease, Krimi Danta is considered under Danta roga. Krimi Danta is characterized by blackish discoloration of tooth with cavity formation, loosening of teeth, foul fluid discharges associated with pain and swelling due to vitiated Vata followed by Pitta and Kapha. Krimi Danta can be correlated to dental caries in modern science, in which bacteria damage the enamel which is the hardest structure of tooth as well as dentine and cementum. These tissues progressively break down, producing dental cavities. Pain is the commonest symptom in caries. Hence, the present study is taken up to evaluate the efficacy of ‘Brihatyadi Taila’Gandusha’ in the management of krimi danta.
