As it is a precancerous condition it seeks attention towards this disease. Medical treatments with minor surgical options are available with unsatisfactory results. This study was aimed at finding the safe, effective & cheap alternative remedy of osmf. This study conducted on 60 diagnosed cases of osmf fulfilling eligibility criteria randomly divided in two groups trial group 30 treated with yashtimadhu siddha til tail& control group 30 treated with til tail+saindhav kavalgriha4 for one month with weekly follow-ups .Results in both the groups were encouraging with minimal differences, mouth opening capacity & increased tolerance to spicy foods were the more appreciable results found in trial group. To get more results intervention can be extended for more periods. Before & after mouth opening capacity inter Dental distance between central maxillary & mandibular incisor teeth’s by venire caliper, along with color of buccal mucosa, pliability of mucosa, cheek retraction& tolerance to spices were assessed for the outcome of treatments in both the Groups.
