CBD oil has risen in popularity here in the UK, allowing people more autonomy over their health- perhaps due to media and the supposive legalisation of prescription cannabis medication. Perhaps people see this as a miracle cure. It is after all, a natural form of self-medication, claimed to be effective for epilepsy, ADHD, autism, neurodegenerative disorders, MS, chronic pain, anxiety and inflammation. Is the research on this extensive enough?
In the UK, CBD oil with tetrahydrocannabinol (gives people the high) content <0.2% can be obtained over the counter.
Are there any concerns for dental professionals with these products? Aside from the unknown impact on the mouth and interactions with other drugs and potential to affect the consent process, perhaps the lack of guidelines concerning CBD oil and dentistry.
