Probiotic Dental Health Randomized TrialStudy selection, data extraction, and risk of bias assessment (RoB 2.0) were performed independently by two reviewers.1Kumar G (2026)Impact of probiotic supplementation on salivary function, oral microbiota, and gut health: a systematic review.
Probiotic Dental Health Randomized TrialProbiotic supplementation was associated with improvements in salivary parameters, including buffering capacity and plaque pH, and reductions in cariogenic bacteria such as Streptococcus mutans .1Kumar G (2026)Impact of probiotic supplementation on salivary function, oral microbiota, and gut health: a systematic review.
Probiotic Dental Health Randomized TrialOverall, evidence suggested beneficial effects, though heterogeneity and methodological limitations reduced certainty.1Kumar G (2026)Impact of probiotic supplementation on salivary function, oral microbiota, and gut health: a systematic review.
Probiotic Dental Health Randomized TrialIntroduction Probiotics, which are classified as helpful living microorganisms, have demonstrated the ability to improve salivary function, inhibit pathogens like Streptococcus mutans, and modify the oral and gut microbiota.1Kumar G (2026)Impact of probiotic supplementation on salivary function, oral microbiota, and gut health: a systematic review.
Probiotic Dental Health Randomized TrialThey can be found in yogurt and other fermented foods and/or dairy products, such as pickles, ice cream, dietary supplements, and beauty products.1Acuña Ponce de León Emily Gabriela (2026)Effects of bifidobacterium lactis bb12 probiotic consumption on streptococcus mutans levels: a systematic review of randomized clinical trials
Probiotic Dental Health Randomized Trial, - - There is currently scientific evidence about probiotics and their multiple benefits to oral and systemic health.1Acuña Ponce de León Emily Gabriela (2026)Effects of bifidobacterium lactis bb12 probiotic consumption on streptococcus mutans levels: a systematic review of randomized clinical trials
Probiotic Dental Health Randomized TrialFigure 1 With the algorithm, a total of 61 articles were identified, of which 26 were excluded: 2 for being duplicates, 10 for not meeting the PICOS question, and 10 because the full article version could not be found; these versions were requested, where only 2 of these articles could be obtained.1Acuña Ponce de León Emily Gabriela (2026)Effects of bifidobacterium lactis bb12 probiotic consumption on streptococcus mutans levels: a systematic review of randomized clinical trials
