Summary
The oral cavity is mostly influenced by general health. The oral microbiota which is as
complex as the gastro-intestinal or vaginal microbiota are considered to be difficult
therapeutic targets. The effects of probiotics in different fields of health care have
resulted recently in the introduction of probiotics for oral healthcare. Probiotics have been
clinically proved effective in different fields of oral healthcare such as halitosis, oral
candidiasis and tooth decay. They have also been inducted in the field of periodontal
healthcare because of the current views on the etiology of plaque- related periodontal
inflammation.
