Objective. This study assessed the effects of systemic omega-3 on the treatment of recurrent aphthous stomatitis and on the improvement of quality of life. Study Design. Fifty participants were randomly assigned to receive either omega-3 (1 g, 3 times daily) or placebo for 6 months. Assessment of outcome measures including monthly number of new ulcers, average duration of ulcer episodes, and pain level of ulcers was carried out at baseline and monthly for 6 months. Analysis of potential impact on quality of life using the Oral Health Impact Profile 14 was carried out at baseline and 6 months. Results. Daily omega-3 treatment achieved a significant reduction in number of ulcers, duration of ulcers, and level of pain by 3 months that persisted for 6 months. Mean score on Oral Health Impact Profile 14 also significantly improved by 6 months. Conclusions. A daily omega-3 regimen shows promise as therapy for treatment and management of patients with recurrent aphthous stomatitis.
