Description

Sivakamavalli Jeyachandran reviews red seaweeds as tools for dental care in a 2025 paper. Red seaweeds hold rich stores of active compounds such as carrageenan and agar. Dentistry seeks natural options for healing, germ control, and tooth repair.

The review covers uses from gum care to wound healing and rebuilding tooth mineral. Seaweed compounds calm inflammation in gum disease and sores and block key germs that cause cavities. Thin films made from carrageenan can deliver drugs in the mouth and aid tissue regrowth. Seaweeds could also supply greener mouthwashes and toothpastes. The author stresses that firm clinical trials must come before wide use.
