INTRODUCTION There is a very famous health tip which says, “Eat your liquids and drink your sol-ids”. For this one has to masticate the food thoroughly which is possible only with healthy oral cavity. Mukha is considered as one of the most important part of urdhwa-jatru, because it works as the reflection of the body health by acting as the gateway of alimentary canal. Fast food culture, un-healthy habits like smoking and improper oral hygiene have caused irreversible dam-age to human health. One of the main dis-eases of which human generation is suffer-ing due to above factors is sheetada men-tioned in Ayurvedic classics which can be correlated to Gingivitis as per Modern den-tistry.

Earliest reference about Sheetada is available in Sushruta samhita (2350B.C.). He has mentioned it under Danta moolagata rogas in mukharoga prakarana.. There will be vitiation of kapha and rakta resulting in soft, bleeding, moist gingiva associated with foul smell and blackish discolouration.

Sheetada can be correlated to Gingi-vitis. It is most commonly encountered oral disease in day to day practice. It is often caused by plaque. The cause of plaque in-duced gingival disease is the accumulation of bacterial plaque at or near the gingival margin. The bacterial component of plaque produces a variety of enzymes and toxins which diffuse through the junctional epithe-lium and initiate inflammatory changes in gingival connective tissue. If there are no plaque control measures Gingivitis may progress to involve deeper structures and cause destruction of the periodontal fibres and resorption of alveolar bone. Inadequate oral hygiene invariably leads to gingivitis

which is an inflammatory response of the gingiva without the destruction of support-ing tissues. Inflamed gingival is clinically recognized by the signs of inflammation such as redness of the gingiva, swelling, bleeding, exudation, and occasional pain. The Prevelance rate of gingivitis in India is 80 – 90%. Currently there are no reliable predictors of which individuals are suscepti-ble to this disease progression, so prevention and control of gingivitis is essential in every case.The treatment described in our classics for Sheetada are Visravana, Pratisarana, Pralepa, Kavala and Nasya which are aimed at breaking the pathogenesis of the disease and improving the health of the gingiva. A reference in Ashtanga Hridaya describes the line of treatment in Sheetada as visravanafollowed by Pratisarana, Kavala and Nasya. These are simple procedures, free from side effects and cost effective. Mustadi choorna mentioned in Ash-tanga Hridaya in the management of Shee-tada, consists of the following drurgs –Musta, Arjuna, Twak, Triphala, Priyangu, Rasanjana and Shunti. The drugs in this preparation possess kapha raktahara, rakta shodhaka, rakta stambhaka, Shothahara, vrana shodhaka, ropaka and vedana stapana properties. Madhuroushadha sadhita taila nasya has been mentioned in our classics in the treatment of sheetada.Hence Yashtimadhu taila has been selected for nasya. Management of gingivitis according to modern dentistry is by mechanical re-moval of Plaque by scaling. Many a times there will be persistent gingival inflamma-tion even after repeated scaling. Last treat-ment of choice is flap surgery, which is

brings about faster cure. There is an added benefit of honey which possess cleansing, debriding, anti-inflammatory and antibacte-rial properties. It also acts as a very good healing agent.Probable Mode of Action of Mustadi kwa-tha Kavala in The management of Gingi-vitis:Gargling creates pressure in the oral cavity and brings out toxins and other debris from the interdental, gingival, and gingival mar-gins, thereby cleansing the oral cavity. The pressure exerted by gargling also helps in the penetration of the drug into the oral mu-cosa (gingiva). The lukewarm liquid or oil used for kavala helps in dilation of the blood vessels in the oral mucosa (gingiva) and thus helps in absorption of the active ingredients present in medicine, which in turn gives strength to the roots of the teeth. The drugs used in this preparation Possess anti in-flammatory, anti infective property and anti oxidant property which in turn helps in faster healing. Gargling with this decoction helps in the reduction of specific bacteria in the oral cavity. Probable Mode of Action of Madhuraou-shadha Taila (Madhuyashti) as Pratimar-sha Nasya in the Management of Gingivi-tis:

1. Yastimadhu is madhura rasatmaka, guru, snigdha guna, madura vipaka, sheeta virya, pitta kapha samaka.. 2. Chemical analysis of Yasti has revealed that it has 2.93% of calcium oxide which

helps in regeneration of periodontal liga-ment and osteoblast of alveolar bone tosome extent. Yashtimadhu is said to be pitta vata rakta hara.4 Thereby it pacifies the rakta dosha which the prime vitiating factor in sheetada. Hence when used as nasya in the form of taila in Sheetada it helps in dosha shamana. The benefit of Pratimarsha nasya done after brushing is that it will cause firmness of the teeth and pleasant odour to the mouth. And moreover it can be done in any age group people and can be administered even at unsuitable, rainy sea-son and on bad days (having no sunlight). 5

Mode of action of pratimarsha nasya: The medicine that is put into nostrils, moves up the channels upto the srngataka (a vital spot at the base of the brain.), spreads to the whole of the interior of the head, the chan-nels of the eyes, ears, throat and their veins and cures the diseases affecting the parts above the shoulders quickly, removing out the accumulation of doshas localized in the head.5

DISCUSSION ON RESULT:To evaluate the effect of treatment on indi-vidual parameters paired t-test was applied .

Overall assessment of the results showed that the patients who were treated with Pracchanan, Mustadi choorna Pratisarana, Mustadi kavala and Madhuyashti taila nasya karma have showed 80% Good re-sponse, 20% Moderate response and 0% Mild response.
