Miswak is an Arabic word that means tooth cleaning stick. Miswak, which has several antibacterial properties, is preferred for oral hygiene mainly due to its antimicrobial effect. There is a wide variety of organic and inorganic compounds within its extract. Organic compounds like glycoside, saponins, flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins, benzyl derivatives, phenol compounds, and organic acids can be found in miswak. Inorganic compounds such as fluoride, chloride, sulphate, thiocyanate and nitrate can also be identified in it in trace levels.
It has a therapeutic effect on gingival disease, besides acting against multiple gum disease causing organisms. Miswak helps prevent tooth decay, which normally occurs when enamel is destroyed. Interestingly, mouth’s saliva prevents the build up of acid and gives teeth time to repair themselves. Miswak is known to have the capacity to increase the formation of saliva in mouth and thus prevents tooth decay.
The sodium chloride, sodium bicarbonate and calcium oxide present in miswak helps strengthen teeth enamel. It effectively helps clean teeth. It helps protect teeth from plaque, which is the colourless film of bacteria that forms on the teeth and gums, and tartar, the hardened plaque deposits, with the effect of miswak.
