Abstract: Royal jelly (RJ) is a bee product rich in biologically active compounds for example proteins, antimicrobial peptides, bioactive fatty acids, flavonoids, and polyphenols, which confer antimicrobial, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and regenerative properties. Due to these biological effects, RJ shows promising potential as a natural alternative in dentistry, being effective against oral pathogens involved in dental caries, fungal infections, and periodontal disease, as well as in supporting tissue healing and regeneration processes. This review aims to highlight the biologically active composition of RJ and its promising applications in oral health, emphasizing its role as a possible natural adjuvant therapy in dental medicine. Keywords: Royal jelly, bioactive components, oral health. DOI 10.56082/annalsarscibio.2026.1.210 Read full article 1Resident, Grigore T.
