Abstract:

Berberine is a benzylisoquinoline alkaloid, occurring as one of the main active ingredients in many traditional herbs including coptis, barberry, phellodendron. Several studies have depicted its anticonvulsant, antihypertensive, antidepressant, anti-inflammatory, hypolipidemic, and antidiabetic biological effect. Depending on a rich and varied biological function, the potential of berberine for curing oral diseases has been discovered recently. Researchers focus on the relation of berberine to oral diseases, such as periodontitis, caries, periapical periodontitis, diseases of oral mucosa, oral/maxillofacial. The review pays attention to the biological function of berberine as well as its roles in oral diseases.

Key words: berberine, caries, periapical periodontitis, periodontitis, diseases of oral mucosa, tumor
