“…Details of the reviewed studies are shown according to their objective, population, study method and conclusion. The characteristics of the 10 selected articles (10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19) were randomized clinical trial design (RCT) from the last 5 years (2018-2023). The probiotic strains studied in different presentations such as tablets, yogurt, probiotic-based mouthwashes, drops; were W. cibaria CMU, L.rhamnosus SP1, B. lactis HN19, L. reuteri, L. acidophilus La5 and B. lactis Bb12 to know their effect in different types of populations to preserve oral health.…”

“…Biofilm organization varies in different areas of the oral cavity due to variations in ecological niches. In the supragingival zone, the dominant species include facultatively anaerobic saccharolytic anaerobic organisms of the genera Actinomyces, Veillonellag, Granulicatella, Streptococcus, and Rothia, whereas in the subgingival zone, gram-negative, anaerobic, and proteolytic species are found (23,24). In the subgingival zone, gram-negative, anaerobic, and proteolytic species are found.…”

To describe the scientific literature on the uses and application of probiotics in dentistry. An electronic search was carried out without date restriction in the PubMed and Scopus databases. The articles were compiled, and their characteristics, objectives and methods were studied using the following keywords: "probiotics", "S. mutans", "oral health", "biofilm", among others. For the present literature review, 10 studies were chosen that investigate the probiotic action of certain strains such as Lactobaccillus and Bifidobacterium in periodontal and orthodontic treatments, among others. These studies proved their efficacy in different types of presentations such as tablets and yogurt, in different types of populations such as infants, young people and older adults. Finally, a large part of these studies determined biofilm reduction. Based on the research articles, strains such as Lactobaccillus and Bifidobacterium showed positive effects in the reduction of bacterial plaque such as S. mutans in short- and long-term periods in different populations. There is a large production of studies concerning the application of probiotics in dentistry. However, it is necessary to carry out studies with other types of bacteria and different vehicles to determine more precisely which species help to maintain oral health.

“…Almost all aspects of the analysis were ful lled except for 5 articles (20-24) which did not include patients follow up in the analysis. It should be noted that in one article (25) there is no real blinding, since the control group is given chewing gum and the experimental group is given yogurt, due to the different" nature" of the treatment, both subjects and researchers knew who was in the control and experimental group. Another article (26) refers to be a double blind, randomized controlled trial, but does not describe in detail how selection, randomization and blinding were performed.…”

“…Lacticaseibacillus and Bi dobacterium are the most frequent probiotic studied, where the most common species are Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus (20,23,(26)(27)(28), Lacticaseibacillus paracasei (24,29,30) and Bi dobacterium longum (20,23). Interestingly, two studies had reported the comparison of probiotics (Bi dobacterium, Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus and Lacticaseibacillus plantarum) with the prebiotics Xylitol and Cinnamon Bark Oil (21,25).…”

“…Most of the studies, reported the consumption of the probiotic as an ingredient of probiotic milk (20,23,26,(28)(29)(30)(31), however, the administration via yogurts (24,25), lozenges and oral tablets (22,32), adhesive gel or patch (21,33) and even mouthrinse (27) were found. The daily intake of such probiotics varies between 10 5 -10 9 CFU/mL during the different intervention times.…”

Background The use of prebiotics and/or probiotic bacteria with the potential to modulate the oral ecosystem may play an important role in the prevention and management of dental caries. To assess the evidence of the potential of pre/probiotics both in the prevention and treatment of dental caries, and therefore as adjuvant approaches in caries management, we focused on the PICO question “In individuals with caries, after probiotic administration, is there an improvement in outcomes directly related to caries risk and development?". Methods An extensive systematic search was conducted in electronic databases PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus and Cochrane, to identify articles with relevant data. This systematic review included trials complying the following inclusion criteria: studies performed in Humans; published in English; including the observation of patients with caries, with clear indication of the probiotic used and measurement of outcomes directly involved with the cariogenic process, including quantification of bacteria with cariogenic potential. To evaluate methodological quality of the studies, the critical assessment tool Joanna Briggs Institute was used. Results Eight hundred and fifty articles, potentially relevant, were identified. Following PRISMA guidelines 14 articles were included in this systematic review. Outcomes related to improvement of caries risk and development parameters were salivary counts of S. mutans and Lactobacillus, salivary pH and buffer capacity, new caries and caries activity, reduction of the cariogenic organisms content, assessed through sequencing approaches and salivary concentration of antimicrobial peptides. The probiotic most often referred with beneficial results in dental caries outcomes is Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus being the most recommended to be included in clinical studies related to oral health. Regarding the most used administration vehicle, in studies with positive effects on the caries management, probiotic supplemented milk is considered the best administration vehicle. Conclusions Evidence suggests a beneficial effect of probiotic supplemented milk (Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus) as an adjuvant for caries prevention and management. However, comparable evidence is scarce and better designed and comparable studies are needed.
