Fact Check: Can avocado seeds cure tooth and gum pain?
This query was addressed directly to Dr. Arnab Mondal, Pediatric Dental Surgeon from Kolkata, who clarified that there is no established link between avocado seeds and relief of tooth or gum pain. He noted that traditional remedies like clove are far more recognized for managing dental discomfort. Dr. Mondal also pointed out that while scientific literature mentions the use of avocado seed extracts—particularly ethanol extracts—in reducing P. gingivalis (a bacteria associated with tooth and root canal infections), this effect is indirect and not related to pain relief. His conclusion: avocado seeds may help lower bacterial activity over time but do not act as a remedy for dental pain..
