Can I drink honey water for periodontitis?

Patients with periodontitis can drink honey water, but honey water does not have a therapeutic effect on periodontitis. Simply put, honey water is not directly related to periodontitis, and drinking honey water will not reduce the symptoms of periodontitis, nor will it aggravate them. Periodontitis is a periodontal disease caused by poor oral hygiene, the main clinical manifestation is the loss of gum attachment, resulting in gum recession, alveolar bone resorption, and finally the loosening and even loss of teeth, which is the primary risk factor for the loss of teeth in the middle-aged and elderly. For periodontitis, it is necessary to go to a professional dental clinic for basic periodontal treatment, including supragingival scaling, which is commonly known as scaling. However, for diagnosed periodontitis, scaling is far from sufficient and requires a series of periodontal operations such as subgingival scaling and root planing, which will keep periodontitis under control until it stops developing, but it is still clinically very difficult to make the receding gums grow again.
