Abstract
- The article presents a study which examines the impact of daily multivitamin supplementation on the duration and number of recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) episodes. It states that the effect of daily multivitamin on RAS episodes was examined by conducting a single-center, randomized, parallel-arm, double-masked, placebo-controlled study. The result of the study shows that there was no significant difference in the mean number of new RAS episodes between placebo arms and the multivitamin.
