| Resumen en inglés | The recurrent aphthous ulcers, commonly known as aphthae, affect about 20% of population and cause much discomfort when chewing, swallowing and speaking. As its etiology is not well defined the treatments employed are not always effective. The natural therapies are increasingly sought by people, among them there is the use of propolis. Propolis is a resinous compound produced by bees for protecting the hive. Numerous studies demonstrate the propolis pharmacological properties. There are works in dentistry showing the propolis use for aphthae treatment in alcoholic solution form. There are no studies about propolis ointment use for ulcers treatment. The objective of this work was to |

The results showed that propolis ointment use reduced the pain level and the healing time in aphtae cases, and it causes a prolongation between relapses in patients with this kind of lesions. These results are promising, however, it must be considered that it is a preliminary study and further work in this area should be conducted to solidify the effectiveness of propolis ointment for treating aphthae |
