Moringa leaf extract vs standard treatment for infected baby teeth
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study tests if a natural plant extract from moringa leaves can treat infection in baby teeth (primary molars) as effectively as the standard chemical treatment. If effective, it may offer a gentler option for children with deep cavities and tooth pain.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Children aged 3 to 7 years
- Child is generally healthy and cooperative
- Has a baby molar (back tooth) that is severely decayed, infected, or has an abscess
- Tooth is not about to fall out and has enough root left for treatment
- Teeth are not loose (beyond a slight wobble eventually)
- No prior root canal treatment on that tooth

This study compares two liquids used to clean the inside of an infected baby molar during a root canal: one made from the moringa plant and one that is a standard dental disinfectant. The goal is to see if the natural moringa rinse works as well as the standard one to help save the tooth and reduce pain.
This study tests a natural plant-based rinse used inside baby teeth that have infected nerves. The goal is to see if it works as well as standard medicines to control infection and help the tooth heal, so your child can keep their baby tooth until it naturally falls out.
This study compares two treatments for infected baby molars in children aged 5-7. It aims to find which method better relieves pain and saves the tooth.
This study tests whether a natural plant extract (moringa) varnish can help repair early tooth decay as well as a standard fluoride varnish. If you have white spots on your teeth, this could help stop decay from worsening.
This trial tests whether a mouthwash made from the moringa plant is as good as the standard chlorhexidine mouthwash for reducing plaque and gum inflammation (gingivitis). If you have early gum disease and are at risk for cavities, this study may help you improve your oral health with a natural alternative.
This trial compares two types of medicated pastes used to treat severely decayed baby molars with infection. The goal is to find which paste is more effective at stopping infection and helping the tooth heal.
