The science of probiotics is a growing area of study that has now extended to include bad breath probiotics. The idea is that communities of bacteria in any ecosystem should live in equilibrium with each other, and that whatever that affects only some of the bacteria will throw the equilibrium off. This advent has already been used in some types of aquaculture where the proliferation of perilous bacteria can render the goods perilous for humans to eat. The expanding of good bacteria to counter the bad restores a kind of balance. The same advent has been used in natural medicine, and even in some instances of accepted medicine, where antibiotics or other processes have upset the equilibrium of normal bacteria in the body. If you have persistent diarrhea, for example, taking capsules of 'friendly' bowel bacteria can restore things to normal.
In the case of bad breath probiotics, the law is the same. If halitosis is caused by the proliferation of too many anaerobic bacteria in the mouth producing foul smelling volatile sulfur compounds, then the expanding of 'friendly,' non-odor producing bacteria should drive the anaerobes out and build a normal equilibrium of oral bacteria. It's an moving advent because it does not involve the use of drugs, and the beneficial bacteria can be obtained in capsule form. If you have bad breath, the bug to take is Streptococcus salivarius.
BAD
It's not just any Streptococcus salivarius any way - this species of bacteria includes many dissimilar strains, some of which are concerned in tooth decay and, rarely, various types of infection. There is one exact strain that reportedly fights odor-producing bacteria in the mouth: Blis Streptococcus salivarius K12. Blis stands for bacteriocin-like inhibitory substances, or substances simply produced by the bacterium that limit the increase of other bacteria. Interestingly, this same strain has been found to inhibit the increase of the Streptococcus species that causes strept throat, so it may have value in more than just bad breath probiotics.
The probiotic advent holds much promise for the administration of many condition and environmental situations where circumstances have thrown a wholesome equilibrium off kilter. Though it is not all the time clear what has affected the ecology of the mouth, the use of antibiotics for some other condition may be a factor (many antibiotics kill some types of bacteria, like Streptococcus salivarius, and other organisms, while leaving others unharmed). The use of more antibacterial products to tackle the halitosis, therefore, may simply upset the equilibrium further. A bad breath probiotic approach, rather than an antibiotic approach, may be the best solution.
