Mouth Diseases – Biotech Company To Use Probiotics To Maintain Oral Health
Oragenics, today announced that it has
filed a patent application with the United States Patent and Trade Mark Office for its probioticbased
technology for use in developing oral care products for the maintenance of dental and
periodontal health.
The human mouth normally harbors over 300 species of bacteria, some of which are responsible
for tooth decay and gum diseases. A probiotic is a natural bacterium or other microorganism that
contributes a healthy benefit by inhibiting the growth of these disease-causing bacteria.
The probiotic approach in developing oral care products complements the Company’s patented core
technology, known as replacement therapy technology, which uses a genetically modified
bacterium to prevent tooth decay. The Company’s probiotic technology is in early stages of
research and development.
