Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the therapeutic clinical efficacy of a synthesized 5 wt.% chitosan nanoparticle paste compared to a standard topical corticosteroid (triamcinolone acetonide 0.1% oral paste) in patients suffering from minor recurrent aphthous stomatitis. The study specifically monitors changes in clinical ulcer diameter and pain reduction.

Conditions

  • Recurrent Aphthous Stomatitis
  • Oral Ulcers
