The Oral Health Probiotic by Bristle

Has not helped me one way or another.

Didn't notice any difference

I used the oral probiotics for a few months and sadly did not note any difference. My breath issues persist. It's really disappointing because I'm not sure what else I can do.

The taste and consistency of the oral probiotic is very good! I take one every day!

I'm writing this review for the benefit of the public. Probiotics is a new health technology with a lot of promise. So far as I know this product is the first oral health probiotic. I'm going to try it as an experiment. In six months I will have my next dental exam. At that time I will do my best to give you a full report on whether this product helped my dental situation or not.

First, here's about me, the guinea pig: I'm 81 years old. I am a fairly careful tooth brusher. I use a Water Flosser, a Sonicare vibrating toothbrush, and Sensidyne Pronamel toothpaste. In spite of my age, I have all my teeth, all riddled with ancient fillings. I also have 7 crowns or caps on various molars. The crowns are almost 25 years old and still good.

Six months ago my dentist gave me a zero-cavities report. O joy! This week, however,
my dentist told me that I had two cavities in my molars at the gumline, one of them in the space between a crown and the gumline. Dang!

Obviously I'm not doing something right. He advised me to brush more carefully and frequently, and to try this probiotic product.

The idea of probiotics is this: Our bodies are infested with thousands of kinds of bacteria. Most of these bacteria are neutral or are doing us good. Others are evil. Science lately has been finding out that the the good ones are essential for our well-being. Some of the good ones even help keep out the bad ones. Dentist said that oral health probiotics (if I understand this rightly) are an attempt to establish a less-harmful population of bacteria in our mouths, instead of the bad ones.

So I'm going to take his advice, buy and use this product for six months (along with brushing better) and see what happens at my next dental exam. I will let you know the results, if I don't forget, or kick the bucket in the meantime.
