Tooth-Bush Tree

Salvadora persica

Salvadora persica，又称密斯瓦克或牙刷树，起源于北非、中东和亚洲部分地区等不同地区的传统医学实践。它被传统上用于口腔卫生，使用者会用这种树木的树枝来清洁牙齿——这一做法至今仍由一些人继续沿用。科学研究表明，密斯瓦克可以显著减少牙菌斑积累和牙龈炎症，其效果与常规牙刷相当或更佳。此外，L-精氨酸和密斯瓦克提取物在短期内显示出对釉质微硬度的改善以及表面粗糙度的降低，优于标准牙刷。 Salvadora persica 的精油表现出与制霉菌素相似的抗真菌活性，用于治疗假丝酵母菌引起的义齿性口炎患者，尽管其效力不如姜黄。乙酸乙酯部分与低浓度次氯酸钠结合显示出与EDTA类似的牙菌斑去除效果，并增强了牙本质管渗透。尚未记录Salvadora persica的重大安全问题或药物相互作用。
