Recent research highlights the growing interest in including plant extracts in toothpastes due to their antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. The purpose of this review is to analyze the available data on the chemical composition of plant extracts used in toothpastes, to study their functional properties, mechanisms of action, and potential applications as alternatives to traditional components of toothpastes. This review systematically summarizes data from reputable scientific sources regarding the use of natural ingredients in dentistry. The main classes of biologically active compounds, including phenolic compounds, terpenoids, and alkaloids, and their effects on oral health have been thoroughly studied. The mechanisms of their action, their interactions with traditional toothpaste ingredients, and their influence on the physical and chemical properties of the final product are analyzed. Special attention is paid to the composition and technologies used in toothpastes, which include natural biologically active complexes, along with considerations of their environmental safety and prospects for further research in this field. The data obtained indicate the high potential of plant extracts as functional components of toothpastes and emphasize the prospects for further research aimed at optimizing their composition and expanding the scope of application.
