ABSTRACT

Background: Traditional treatment of aphthous stomatitis does not include 20 % chamomile tincture, however its properties justify its possible use.
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of 20 % chamomile tincture as an alternative treatment in patients with aphthous stomatitis for the reduction of pain intensity.
Methodology: An exposed, controlled and randomized experimental study was conducted in Sancti Spíritus municipality between September 2019 and March 2021. Thirty-nine patients with aphthous stomatitis older than 12 years of age were selected; by random assignment, 2 groups were randomly formed: 1 study group applying chamomile tincture at 20 % and another control group using triamcinolone at 0.1 %. Efficiency was the main outcome study variable.
Results: Female sex predominated in both groups. In the study group, the most representative age was 24 to 35 years (25 %) in the control group the predominant age was 36 to 47 years (26.3 %). When comparing the pain intensity at different times of evolution there were no significant differences between the two groups. A patients’ prevalence without adverse reactions was observed, these occurred in a very small number, 1 patient in each group.
Conclusions: The efficacy of chamomile tincture at 20 %, as an alternative treatment for patients with aphthous stomatitis, was similar to that of triamcinolone at 0.1 %.
