Mouth ulcers are common painful lesions of the oral cavity that interfere with eating, speaking, and overall quality of life. The present study aims to develop and evaluate an herbal gel containing powdered Psidium guajava and Cordia dichotoma for the effective management of mouth ulcers. Both plants are traditionally known for their anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antioxidant, and wound-healing properties. The powdered plant materials were incorporated into a suitable gel base using an appropriate gelling agent to obtain a stable and patient-friendly formulation. The prepared herbal gel was evaluated for physicochemical parameters. In addition, antimicrobial activity against selected oral pathogens was assessed to support its therapeutic potential. The formulated gel exhibited acceptable physicochemical characteristics, good spreadability, and pH compatibility with oral mucosa. The presence of bioactive phytoconstituents suggests enhanced wound-healing and antimicrobial activity, making the formulation suitable for oral application. The study concludes that the developed polyherbal gel of Psidium guajava and Cordia dichotoma has promising potential as a safe and effective alternative for the treatment of mouth ulcers. Further clinical studies are recommended to establish its efficacy in human subjects.
