Objective:
To evaluate the clinical effects of garlic plaster on the recurrent oral ulcer (ROU).
Methods:
The garlic powder was made by special method and made into garlic plaster including 0.1% garlicin. The plaster was painted on the surface of ROU to examine its clinical effect. The patients were followed up for 1 to 4 years.
Results:
Of the 30 patients treated with garlic plaster, the complete effective rate was 83.3%, the partial effective rate was 16.7%, and the total effective rate was 100%. Fourteen patients did not recur 4 years after the treatment (46.7%).
Conclusion:
Garlic has a broad clinical prospect due to its effective treatment on ROU.
