Background: Plaque management is critical for preventing gingival and periodontal diseases. The health benefits of Oxalis corniculata (OC) have recently gained prominence in medical research. This systematic study set out to investigate the many therapeutic effects of Oxalis corniculata on oral health, with a particular focus on its impact on gingivitis and plaque. Methods: The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review recommendations will be followed while conducting a systematic review. The therapeutic benefits of Oxalis corniculata in oral health will be assessed. The research studies from 2013 to 2023 will be included after retrieving from search engines utilized to identify appropriate information about Oxalis corniculata from databases like PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science. Results: The eligible randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and systematic reviews will be used for quantitative synthesis. The risk of bias assessment will be done by the Cochrane risk assessment tool and the quality of the research studies will be assessed by the critical appraisal check assessment scale (CASP). Conclusion: This study will evaluate the effectiveness of Oxalis corniculata in reducing plaque and gingivitis. As a result, the new ethnomedicinal plant, Oxalis corniculata, with several therapeutic effects on oral health may be investigated. Trial registration: The protocol was registered on December 30, 2023, with registration ID CRD42023495473 with the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO).

Abstract

Background: Plaque management is critical for preventing gingival and periodontal diseases. The health benefits of Oxalis corniculata (OC) have recently gained prominence in medical research. This systematic study set out to investigate the many therapeutic effects of Oxalis corniculata on oral health, with a particular focus on its impact on gingivitis and plaque. Methods: The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review recommendations will be followed while conducting a systematic review. The therapeutic benefits of Oxalis corniculata in oral health will be assessed. The research studies from 2013 to 2023 will be included after retrieving from search engines utilized to identify appropriate information about Oxalis corniculata from databases like PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science. Results: The eligible randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and systematic reviews will be used for quantitative synthesis. The risk of bias assessment will be done by the Cochrane risk assessment tool and the quality of the research studies will be assessed by the critical appraisal check assessment scale (CASP). Conclusion: This study will evaluate the effectiveness of Oxalis corniculata in reducing plaque and gingivitis. As a result, the new ethnomedicinal plant, Oxalis corniculata, with several therapeutic effects on oral health may be investigated. Trial registration: The protocol was registered on December 30, 2023, with registration ID CRD42023495473 with the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO).
