Acquaintance and Safety Perception of Probiotics in Opposition to Oral Malady-An Overview
Abstract: In recent years, probiotics have been used to promote oral health. The Time has come to shift the paradigm of treatment from elimination of specific bacteria to altering bacterial ecology by using probiotics. Probiotics are dietary supplements which contain potentially beneficial bacteria or yeasts. They help in stimulating health promoting flora and also suppressing pathogens which cause and spread diseases. The Probiotic approach has shown promising results in the oral health with respect to control of chronic disease such as dental caries, periodontitis, and recurring problems like candidal infections and halitosis. The aim of this review is to understand the mechanism of action of probiotic bacteria in the oral cavity and summarize observed effects of probiotics as as well as their varied applications in the field of dentistry.
