ABSTRACT :Aim The study was aimed to develop and evaluate dental gel containing clove oil as the chief constituent for the treatment of periodontitis. Methods It has a wide spectrum of antibacterial activity against a number of periodontal pathogens, hence it is selected for the treatment of periodontitis. Clove oil gel is formulated by using carbopol 934 as gelling agent, clove oil as medicinal agent, polyethylene glycol co-solvent, methyl paraben and propyl paraben as preservative and required quantity of distilled water as vehicle.
Results The clove oil was evaluated for physical parameters like acid value, ester value, specific gravity and refractive index and it shown satisfactory results. The prepared gel was evaluated for various properties such as antimicrobial activity, pH, spreadability, extrudability, drug content etc. In-Vitro experiments demonstrated that the formulation F3 is a suitable dosage form for the treatment of periodontitis. Clove oil showed the zone of inhibition of about 22.05±0.04 mm.
Conclusion On the basis of the result obtained in this present study we conclude that the gel formulations of clove oil F3 showed good physicochemical properties as well as good drug content compared to other formulations.
Key words Clove oil, Carbopol 934, Periodontitis, Anti microbial activity.

Introduction Herbal gels:• Medicinal plants have been used as traditional treatments for numerous
human diseases for thousands of years and in many parts of the world. In rural areas of the developing countries, they continue to be used as the primary source of medicine. About 80% of the people in developing countries use traditional medicines for their health care [1]
Benefits of herbal drugs:• Herbal drugs have long era of use and better patient tolerance as well as
public acceptance.• Herbal drugs acts as a renewable source, which is our only hope for
sustainable supplies of cheaper medicines for the worlds growing population.
• The cultivation and processing of medicinal herbs and herbal products is environment-friendly.
• Throughout the world, herbal medicine has provided many of the most useful and vast variety of drugs to the modern medical science[2].
Pharmaceutical Gels• Defintion:
Gels are semisolid organic or inorganic colloids rich in liquid, consisting of hydrated threads or granules of the dispersed phase intimately associated with the dispersion medium
• Some gelling agents (carbomers) require a "neutralizer" or a pH adjusting chemical to create the gel after the gelling agent has been wetted in the dispersing medium[3].
• Gelling agents are used concentrations of 0.5% to 10%, depending on the agent.
• It is easier to add the active drug before the gel is formed if the drug doesn't interfere with the gel formation[4].
• Only Carbopol® 934P, methylcellulose, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose are recommended for oral administration.
Periodontal diseases• Periodontal disease is one of the most important concerns for dentists and
patients[5]. It is recognized as a major public health problem throughout the world and is the most common cause of tooth loss in
• The periodontium is the specialized tissues that both surround and support the teeth, maintaining them in the maxillary and mandibular bones. A variety of triggering factors like bacterial causes, dyscrasias, avitaminosis etc cause inflamed gums leading to gingivitis.
• In the United States 50% of adults have gingivitis affecting at least 3-4 teeth; two-thirds of the population has sub gingival calculus, and about a one-third have periodontitis [6] . Periodontal treatment aims to cure inflamed tissue, reduce the number of pathogenic bacteria and eliminate the diseased pockets.
• Mechanical therapy, chemotherapy and systemic administration of antibiotics are some of the clinical methods being utilized currently[7]

Evaluation of gel formulation
Appearance :• All the formulations of clove oil gel were pale yellow in colour. Consistency:• The consistency was checked by applying on skin.Greasiness:• The greasiness was assisted by the application on to the skin. Determination of pH:• The pH of gel was determined using digital pH meter by dipping the glass electrode completely into the gel
system [11]. Determination of viscosity:• Viscosities of the formulated gels was determined using Brooke field viscometer, spindle no. 7 and spindle
speed 60 rpm at 25◦C was used for gels, the corresponding dial reading on the viscometer was noted[12]. Determination of spreadability:• Spreadability was determined using following formula, S=M.L/T• Where S is the spreadability in grams.cm/sec, M is the mass in grams, T is the time in seconds. Determination of extrudability:• It was determined by sing a tube filled with the gel, having a tip of 5mm opening and by measuring the
amount of gel that extruded through the tip when a pressure was applied on the tube was noted down [13].
Determination of antimicrobial activity:Agar cup plate method was used for screening of antimicrobial activity of clove oil gel. Different concentrations of clove oil gel were placed aseptically in cups of agar plate which was previously inoculated with culture[14]. The plates were left at ambient temperature for 30 mins prior to incubation at 37◦C for 24 hrs. The broad spectrum antibiotic i.e., tetracycline was used as positive control for obtaining comparative results[15]. Plates were observed after 24-48 hrs incubation for the appearance of the zone of inhibition. Antimicrobial activity was evaluated by measuring the diameter of zones of inhibition (millimetres) of microbial growth.

Discussions• The procured clove oil was characterized for the following parameters: Acid value : 3.66 Ester value : 37.43 Saponification value: 41.09 Density : 1.02gm/ml Refractive index: 1.492• The formulations were developed by using clove oil of same concentration and carbopol 934 at
different concentrations.All the formulations were pale yellow in colour and had characteristic odour of clove oil. The pH of all formulations ranged from 6.4-6.7, which was well within the normal pH range of buccal cavity 6-7. The spreadability of the gels was found to be in the range of 15.59-18.20 g-cm/sec, confirming that these gels may spread smoothly and uniformly. The formulations were glossy and translucent. The homogeneity and tube extrudability of all formulations was good.
• The drug content of the formulations was ranged from 89.8%-95.40% Table-6.The formulation F3 was found to have maximum drug content.
• The gel formulations of clove oil F3 showed good physicochemical properties as well as good drug content compared to other formulations.(Table -5,6). Hence, theses formulations were further selected for anti microbial studies. The results of anti microbial studies showed that gel formulation of clove oil F3 showed a maximum zone of inhibition on Streptococcus salivarius.
Conclusion • The clove oil was found to have anti microbial activity
against Streptococcus salivarius, Streptococcus sanguis, Lactobacillus acidophilus. The formulations developed from clove showed significant results so it can be further used commercially to develop dental gels after conducting clinical trials on human beings. Nevertheless further research is still needed in order to determine if they efficiently could substitute the synthetic antibiotics are used in combinations.
