In Southern Italy, precisely in all the countryside of northern Bari in Puglia, is produced a particular type of extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) from the cultivar called "Coratina". It is characterized by the presence of a high content of polyphenols and other biocoumponds, the highest compared to other cultivars. The EVOO is an essential food in the Mediterranean diet. Moreover for the ancient populations of southern Italy the oil was use it to treat various diseases: burns, trauma, hematomas, dermatitis etc. Although numerous studies on EVOO have shown its remarkable effectiveness in wound healing, no scientific studies have been proposed for the treatment of traumatic ulcers in the oral cavity. In this clinical case, we propose the use of EVOO as a therapy in therapeutic treatment as a valid alternative to drug treatment |
