Garlic and lemon rinse for kids' tooth infections
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests if a natural mixture of garlic and lemon can fight infection in children's teeth better than plain salt water. If your child has a painful, infected baby tooth, this treatment might help clean it without antibiotics.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be between 4 and 7 years old.
- The tooth must be infected (has swelling, a gum bump, and hurts when tapped).
- An X-ray must show signs of infection near the root of the tooth.
- Your child cannot have a serious medical condition (like a heart problem) that makes dental work risky.
- Your child cannot have taken antibiotics in the last two weeks.
- The tooth must be repairable (not too damaged or oddly shaped).
