Probiotics and Oral Health!

Probiotics are living microorganisms that provide health benefits when consumed in adequate amounts. These beneficial bacteria are known to support digestion, enhance immune function, and promote overall well-being. In recent years, probiotics have gained significant popularity, leading to the development of a wide range of products aimed at delivering these beneficial microorganisms to consumers.


In this episode, Camille and Jonathan further explore the existing research, safety, and consumer landscape of oral probiotics. Below are some notes we refer to throughout this episode:


  • Lactobacillus salivarius tablets (Nishihara et al 2014) have shown the ability to reduce the risk of tooth decay.
  • Clinical study w/ inactivated Lactobacillus plantarum L137 capsules showed probiotics can reduce pocket depth in patients undergoing supportive periodontal therapy (Iwasaki et al 2016).
  • L. rhamnosus GG + Bifidobacterium lactis BB12 lozenges were evaluated for anti-gingival and biofilm effects in healthy adolescents (Alanizi et al 2018).
  • L. reuteri 2x chewing gum reduced OLT scores after two weeks of use (Yoo et al 2019) and L. salivarius probiotics helped control bad breath and related factors (Suzuki et al 2014).
