Probiotics: Eat What You Like And Let The Food Fight It Out Inside
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 9
Abstract
Probiotics are live nonpathogenic microorganisms which provide health benefits by adding "good" microbes to fight against "bad" microbes. When effective, the good microbes reduce the bacterial threat of the bad microbes associated with caries, periodontal diseases and halitosis. Probiotics can benefit dental patients who have comorbidities such as type 1 diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis or high cholesterol etc. This article reviews the role of probiotics for management of periodontal diseases and explores its potential effectiveness as a novel treatment strategy.
