Probiotics are emerging as a potential adjunct in managing oral dysbiosis associated with caries, periodontal disease, and halitosis. Strain-specific effects on microbial balance, immune modulation, and biofilm formation are areas of active research. Clinical application may include lozenges, chewing gums, or dairy products containing beneficial bacteria. While promising, current evidence supports probiotics as a complement to traditional hygiene practices rather than a standalone treatment. Ongoing studies will clarify optimal strains, dosages, and long-term benefits.
