📄 Abstract
The anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antiseptic, and antioxidant effects of tea tree oil (TTO), which is extracted from Melaleuca alternifolia, are among its well-known therapeutic qualities. Over 100 components, such as terpinen-4-ol, alpha-sabine, and cineole, contribute to its medicinal advantages, including antibacterial action against Staphylococcus aureus and immunological regulation. TTO has been used to treat acne, chronic gum infections, and bacterial/inflammatory problems. Concerns surrounding its safety and possible toxicity, particularly with regard to oral consumption and cutaneous irritation, underscore the need for additional research into its long-term consequences and hazards, even in light of its demonstrated efficacy. Independent research are needed to fully evaluate the health advantages and safety profile of TTO, despite its rare and moderate adverse responses.
