NCT ID NCT05816707

First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested whether curcumin (the active part of turmeric) can improve healing of gums and bone after a tooth is pulled. Thirty adults with two badly decayed back teeth each had both teeth removed. One socket received curcumin or a platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) gel, while the other socket healed naturally. Researchers measured soft tissue healing and bone density to see if curcumin helped recovery.
