Can turmeric gels beat standard tooth infection treatments?
NCT ID NCT06342830
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether natural gels (curcumin and nanocurcumin) or synthetic gels (ciprofloxacin with ibuprofen) placed inside a tooth between retreatment visits can help heal infections better than the standard calcium hydroxide paste. Sixty adults with failed root canals and persistent infections participated. The main goal was to see if the infection site shrank on a 3D X-ray after one year.
