Anti-Cariogenic Effects of and in Cross-Kingdom In Vitro Models.

Despite the well-documented health benefits of the probiotic , its application in oral health has not been comprehensively assessed. Dental caries is a transmissible disease initiated by acid production of cariogenic bacteria and yeast, such as and , on tooth enamel and followed by subsequent enamel demineralization. Here, we investigated the effect of two strains ( and ) on - cross-kingdom interactions using a cariogenic planktonic model.
