Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Introduce a new anti-inflammatory and antioxidant paste preparation (curcumin paste) in the management of Oral lichen planus.

* Assess the efficacy of this preparation on pain, clinical parameter and the level of IL-33 in saliva.
* Compare the outcome of new preparation with the gold standard treatment (corticosteroids).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Two groups will be prepared then decision of which one take curcumin paste will be selected according to randomized numbers in a sequentially numbered, opaque, sealed envelope

1 group will take topical corticosteroid and 1 will take curcumin paste then IL-33 level in saliva will be measured at the base line and at the end of 4th week pain and clinical parameters will be measured at 2nd and 4th week

turmeric paste

Topical curcumin gel (a mixture of curcumin powder and vegetable glycerin base in a ratio of 1:8 by weight) Mix with 85ml carbapol gel (125ml H2O + 0.5g carbapol + triethanolamine 3 drops) prepared in the Faculty of pharmacy-Cairo University traumeric extracted from Curcuma plant, it has anti-inflammatory, antioxidative and antineoplastic properties ((Nosratzehi et al., 2018), The curcumin is safe even in high doses, Since oxidative stress may play a role in pathophysiology of OLP, and by noting that OLP is a chronic inflammatory disease, the herbs which have both anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties may efficiently control OLP (Kia et al., 2015).
