Ayurveda is a branch of medicine pertaining with the treatment modalities utilizing the natural ways . Traditional medicine has several benefits including being economically beneficial and having lesser toxic effects also proven to be a permanent cure when compared with its allopathic counterparts . The benefits of several such naturally occurring medicines is still not clear . They are used as anti-inflammatory agent , antifungal agent and can also be used as antioxidants and analgesics . Introducing Herbal Medicine into Dentistry will be beneficial in several aspects like relieving pain , inflammation , being cost effective and readily available etc. Apart from all the uses , the belief that ‘The herbal medicine is devoid of side effects is not true . Despite of all these advantages of traditional medicines , the amount of their usage is comparatively less owing to the lack of its awareness. Hence the objective of the article is to mention the uses and toxicities of most commonly used herbs and their usage in dentistry

Tinea Versicolor

Tinea versicolor is a common skin rash caused by over growth of yeast over skin surface resulting in uneven skin colour and scaling which is harmless, asymptomatic and non-contagious.[1] In this case generally medication used are antifungal i.e. Ketaconazoles systemic and tropically which may lead to many side effects and re-occurrence. In Ayurveda there is no detail explanation but somehow correlated with Sidma Kusta, which is one among the Maha Kusta. Which can be treated by Vamana Karma, Virechana Karma or Rakthamokshana.[2] By this we can say Ayurvedic treatment modalities are utilized according to presentation of disease.

Breast cancer is one of the top-ranked cancers affecting women in the world. Although there are approved standard regimens for treatment, due to toxicological side effects, there is a demand for novel anti-cancer drugs with minimal adverse effects leading to the emergence of Indian Systems of Medicine. Natural treatment modalities such as Siddha, Ayurveda and Unani are emerging and have been given gaining importance in recent times. They have been in vogue for centuries together and have shown better prognosis over a period of time with lesser toxicity and admiring oncological results. The presentation is an evidence-based report on the cure of breast cancer using Siddha chemotherapeutic formulations.

AbstractSevere scarring is known for causing severe functional, aesthetic, and psychosocial impairments. During the last years, treatment of mature scars has evolved significantly; however, researchers and clinicians are more and more focused on preventing excessive scarring altogether, thus avoiding long and strenuous treatment. While some forms of scar prevention have been known and used for decades, others are relatively new and have yet to prove themselves. Pressure garments have long been successfully used in widespread burn scar prevention. However, reduced compliance, large treatment costs, and little hard evidence are points that should be taken into consideration regarding this well-established form of treatment. Silicone gel sheeting has also been used for a long time, and it is well regarded for its efficacy in reducing scar height and improving pliability while boasting little side effects. Its mode of action, however, remains unclear. Recently, lasers have become a new focus in the effort to prevent pathological scarring. Here, the older pulsed dye laser, as well as newer, fractional ablative and nonablative lasers, is increasingly employed for the treatment of fresh scars, where initial research is showing significant promise.This chapter explores the currently available methods for scar prevention and examines their application and the evidence regarding their efficacy.

Prevention And Cure

Ayurveda is the ancient most medicine science with equal emphasis upon prevention and cure. Due to environmental pollution, global warming, and life style disorders, a very common disease, Pratishyaya/Rhinitis occurs much more frequently than before. Pratishyaya has been considered as a separate clinical condition in Uttar Tantra of Sushruta Samhita. Improper management or negligence can lead to lots of complications like Badhirya, Andhata, Gandhanasha, Kasa etc. Rhinitis is an inflammation of the nasal membranes, characterized by watery nasal discharge, nasal obstruction, sneezing and nasal itching. This may also be associated with symptoms of itching in the eyes, palate and pharynx. Many treatment modalities are explained in modern system of medicine like corticosteroids, antiallergics, inhalers, antihistamines etc., but none of them are totally effective in curing the disease as well as preventing its recurrence, more over they have their own side effects.

Bioactive Agents

From ancient times, medicinal plants have been usually utilized to treat many disorders, but today, interest in these herbs is again aroused, because of their fewer side effects and low-cost. In traditional medicine, for many diseases, various medicinal herbs have been suggested so far. Drimia maritime, also named squill, is an important medicinal plant for the treatment of many diseases, especially respiratory diseases. In the current evidence-based study, we conducted a review of the general characteristics, ingredients, administration form, and side effects of squill in traditional medicine. For this purpose, traditional Persian medicine literatures and electronic databases were examined including PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar. Many compounds are isolated from D.maritima, including scillaren, scillirubroside, scillarenin, and bufadienolide glycosides. Oxymel is the most commonly used form of squill for various diseases, especially respiratory diseases. Besides, squill has been used in the treatment of cardiovascular, digestive, and dermatological disorders, it is also used against various cancer cells for its antioxidant and cytotoxic properties. Moreover, there is relatively reliable evidence of its benefits for bacterial and helminthic infections, rheumatism, edema, gout, abortion induction, healing of wounds and urine induction. It seems that supplementary studies are required to explore the bioactive agents and their effective mechanisms.

Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumours

Background: The incidence of pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumours (pNETs) has increased considerably in the last few decades. The characteristic features of this tumour and the development of new investigative and therapeutic methods had a great impact on its management. Objective: The aim of this review is to investigate the outcome of Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy (PRRT) in the treatment of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours. Methods: A comprehensive literature search strategy was used based on two databases (SCOPUS, and PubMed). We considered all studies published in English, evaluating the use of PRRT (177Luteciuim- DOTA-conjugated peptides and 90Yetrium- DOTA- conjugated peptides) in the treatment of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours as a standalone entity or as a subgroup within the wider category of Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumours (GEP NETs). Results: PRRT was found to be an effective treatment modality as a monotherapy or in combination with other therapies in the treatment of non-operable and metastatic pNETs where other options are limited. Complete response was reported to be between 2-6% while partial response was achieved in up to 60% of cases. Survival analysis was also impressive. Progression Free Survival (PFS) reached a mean of 34 months and Overall Survival (OS) of 53 months. PRRT also proved to improve patients’ Quality of Life (QoL). Acute and sub-acute side effects like nephrotoxicity and haematotoxicity are usually mild and reversible. Conclusion: PRRT is well tolerated and effective treatment option for non-operable and/or metastatic pNETs. Side effects are usually mild and reversible. Larger randomized controlled trails need to be done to compare PRRT with other treatment modalities and to provide more detailed guidelines regarding patient selections, the choice of PRRT, follow up and response assessment to maximum potential benefit.
