Oral probiotic composition

An oral probiotic composition which contains Streptococcus salivarius K12 and one or more of the Chinese herb extract effective ingredients can adjust oral flora balance, clean the oral cavity and improve oral air, and also has the efficacy of diminishing inflammation and relieving sore swollen throat.

ANTIMICROBIAL ACTIVITY OF LACTOBACTERIA AGAINST OPPORTUNITICAL MICROORGANISMS OF THE ORAL CAVITY

Strains with high antagonistic activity against isolates of opportunistic microorganisms isolated in acute tonsillitis were selected and their probiotic properties, such as sensitivity to antibiotics, adhesiveness and resistance to high salt content, have been studied.

Opportunities and Challenges of Application of the Probiotics/Postbiotics in Cosmetics and Female Personal Care Products

The Use of Probiotics in Prevention and Treatment of Oral Diseases

The role of probiotics in prevention and management of oral diseases, including caries, periodontal diseases and other intra oral pathological conditions is described.

PROBIOTICS - A BOON TO PREVENTIVE DENTISTRY!

The aim of this review is to understand the actual mechanism of action of probiotic bacteria in the oral cavity and summarize their observed effects with respect to oral health.

Probiotics in Oral Health- A Review

The aim of this review is to examine potential mechanisms of probiotic bacteria in the oral cavity and to summarize observed effects of probiotics with respect to oral health.

Competitive Selection of Lactic Acid Bacteria That Persist in the Human Oral Cavity

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) might offer opportunities as oral probiotics provided candidate strains persist in the mouth and coaggregation with other microbes is likely not a prerequisite for persistence since L. salivarius strongly coaggregated with typical oral cavity isolates, whereas L. fermentum failed to display this phenotype.

Influence of the probiotic Streptococcus salivarius strain M18 on indices of dental health in children: a randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.

It was concluded that S. salivarius M18 can provide oral health benefits when taken regularly and the absence of any significant adverse events supported the safety of the probiotic treatment.

Probiotics in Foods and Supplements

This chapter will provide a practical overview of the different probiotic preparations available to clinicians and provide a paucity of information regarding the dosage and viability of these strains and products.

Developing oral probiotics from Streptococcus salivarius.

Strain K12, the prototype S. salivarius probiotic, originally introduced to counter Streptococcus pyogenes infections, now has an expanded repertoire of health-promoting applications, and other potential applications include upregulation of immunological defenses against respiratory viral infections and treatment of oral candidosis.

Composition and Susceptibility to Chlorhexidine of Multispecies Biofilms of Oral Bacteria

A six-membered biofilm community with a bacterial composition similar to that found in supragingival dental plaque is grown using a constant-depth film fermentor and cryosectioning revealed the distribution of bacteria throughout the biofilm.

Assessing the contribution of anaerobic microflora of the tongue to oral malodor.

The data indicate that the proteolytic, anaerobic flora residing on the tongue plays an essential role in the development of halitosis.

Microbiology and treatment of halitosis

Several candidate mouthrinses containing essential oils, ZnCl2, chlorine dioxide, or an oil:water-cetylpyridium chloride mouthrinse have reduced the organoleptic scores of individuals with moderate levels of oral malodor in the absence of tongue brushing.

Potential Uses of Probiotics in Clinical Practice

There is mounting evidence that selected probiotic strains can provide health benefits to their human hosts, and accepted standards and guidelines proposed by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and the World Health Organization represent a key step in ensuring that reliable products with suitable, informative health claims become available.

Colonization and Immunomodulation by Lactobacillus reuteri ATCC 55730 in the Human Gastrointestinal Tract

Dietary supplementation with the probiotic L. reuteri ATCC 55730 induces significant colonization of the stomach, duodenum, and ileum of healthy humans, and this is associated with significant alterations of the immune response in the gastrointestinal mucosa.

Production of volatile sulphur compounds in diseased periodontal pockets is significantly increased in smokers.

Increased production of volatile sulphur compounds may represent a further mechanism of increased susceptibility to periodontitis in smokers and also help to explain the reported association between smoking and halitosis.

The efficacy of amine fluoride/stannous fluoride in the suppression of morning breath odour.

It is demonstrated that morning breath odour can be successfully reduced by the sole twice daily use of CHX-Alc,CHX-CPC-Zn or AmF/SnF2Mr mouthrinses, which all significantly reduced the bacterial load in the saliva and retarded the de novo plaque formation.
