Medicinal plants to control oral pathogens and oral biofilms: A review

Abstract

Medicinal plants which showed antimicrobial activity against oral pathogens and inhibited biofilm formation have the capability of eliminating the oral microbes and preventing many oral infections. In the current review, PubMed, Web Science, Science Direct, Researchgate, Academia.edu and Scopus were searched to determine the medicinal plants with antibacterial effects against the common oral pathogens.
