Oral probiotics are beneficial bacteria ingested to promote oral health. They colonize the mouth, balancing the oral microbiome and reducing harmful bacteria that cause dental issues like cavities, gum disease, and bad breath. Common strains include Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium, known for their antimicrobial properties. Probiotics may be consumed through supplements, certain foods like yogurt, or specialized oral care products like lozenges and mouthwashes. Research suggests they can inhibit pathogens, strengthen the immune response, and alleviate conditions like oral thrush and gingivitis. However, their effectiveness varies, and consultation with a healthcare professional is advisable for proper usage and dosage.
