Overview

The main cause of periodontal diseases, which are chronic inflammatory illnesses that impact the tissues that support teeth, is pathogenic microorganisms found in dental plaque. These conditions include periodontitis, which can lead to tooth loss, and gingivitis, which is a minor inflammation of the gums. Traditionally, antibiotics, antiseptics, and mechanical debridement (scaling and root planing) are used in management. These techniques do have certain drawbacks, though, such as side effects, growing antibiotic resistance, and insufficient pathogen clearance. Probiotics, which are described as live microorganisms that, when given in sufficient quantities, help the host's health, have become a promising adjuvant therapy in periodontal care in recent years. Probiotics are a new, safe, and useful supplement for treating periodontal disorders. They provide a comprehensive approach to oral health by lowering inflammation, decreasing the growth of infections, and reestablishing microbial equilibrium. Evidence currently available supports the use of probiotics in periodontal therapy protocols.
