Efficacy of Thyme Honey as a Novel Adjunct to Non-surgical Periodontal Therapy

Periodontal diseases are disease processes involving the periodontium, a term used to describe the supportive apparatus surrounding the tooth, which includes the gingival tissue, alveolar bone, cementum, and periodontal ligament. Thyme honey, as a conventional therapy, might be a novel antioxidant to abate many of the diseases directly or indirectly associated with oxidative stress. To the best of the researchers' knowledge, there are no published studies on the management of periodontitis in using locally delivered Thyme honey.
