Probiotics & Dental Caries

Bacteria are necessary to cause dental caries. They adhere to the tooth surface with the help of plaque and use the carbohydrates in food (especially sucrose) to polymerise and produce highly viscous dextrans to form a plaque matrix on the one hand, and to produce acid to demineralise the tooth and cause caries on the other.

Streptococcus mutans is the most damaging of these caries-causing bacteria.

Oral probiotics are of great importance in the prevention of dental caries through their ability to inhibit the growth of cariogenic bacteria in the mouth by colonising or producing metabolites in the mouth.

Probiotics & periodontal
problems (with plaque)
The formation of plaque and calculus is the initiating factor for periodontal problems. Probiotics prevent the formation of plaque by lowering the pH of saliva and by the antioxidant content produced. Plaque formation requires not only the involvement of pathogenic bacteria, but also free electrons in the environment to complete the mineralisation of plaque. The antioxidant content produced by probiotics eliminates the free electrons in the environment and further prevents the formation of plaque, thus preventing periodontal problems.

Oral Candida is a common infectious problem of the oral mucosa. Scientific studies have shown that probiotics can reduce the number of Candida in the mouth.
