This review analyzed Spilanthes acmella, a plant traditionally used to treat toothaches, and found it contains multiple bioactive compounds with diverse medicinal properties. The research shows potential applications across medicine, cosmetics, and health supplements, though most evidence comes from lab studies rather than human trials.

Researchers reviewed existing scientific literature on Spilanthes acmella's chemical composition, traditional uses, and laboratory-tested pharmacological effects. This is a literature review, not original experimental research.
