The global oral care market is undergoing a significant transformation. Consumers are increasingly seeking natural, effective alternatives to synthetic antimicrobial agents traditionally used in mouthwashes, toothpastes, and dental gels. Conventional ingredients such as chlorhexidine and cetylpyridinium chloride, while effective, have well-documented drawbacks: tooth staining, altered taste, mucosal irritation, and disruption of the beneficial oral microbiome. Enter α-mangostin, the primary bioactive xanthone derived from the pericarp of mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana L.). This natural compound has become a promising option for oral care. It has a distinctive blend of antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antibiofilm effects with minimal cytotoxicity. This article explores how Mangosteen Extract Powder (standardized to α-mangostin) can be a primary active ingredient in advanced oral care products, including toothpastes, mouthwashes, oral sprays, and dental gels.
