**3. Conclusions**

Herbal medicine can be beneficial in the dental field in dental caries, periodontal disease, candida and viral infection, oral ulcers and lesions. It has several advantages such as easy accessibility, natural products, low cost and toxicity, and faster healing time. However, it can lead to serious problems if used inappropriately. Therefore, a physician consultation is required before any dental use to avoid any potential complications or drug interaction, and a deeper investigation, preclinically and clinically, is needed before official herbal medicine use is highly recommended.
