Abstract

Shitada (Gingivitis) is widely detailed in the western Dentistry, as well  as in Shalakya Tantra from Ayurveda. It can progress to periodontitis,  eventually risking tooth and alveolar bone loss. The prevalence of  Shitada (Gingivitis) is significantly high, however underreported.  Chronicity warrants long term and repetitive medication with anti inflammatory, and antibiotic agents, paving risks for adverse drug  reactions. Pratisarana, the Ayurvedic local management as observed in  this single case study offers safe, effective, and economical alternative.  This can be extended to the high-risk groups for prevention, and to the  patients for management / cure.
