It’s time to add another tool in the fight against childhood caries!

September 11, 2023

As dental professionals know, kids can have a difficult time getting into a consistent oral-care routine. But even the most diligent flossers and brushers still leave plaque and bad bacteria behind – and that can lead to caries, which often cause mouth pain or swollen gums.

Unexpected dental visits can mean missed school days for kids and time off work for parents. So: What can you do to help your young patients maintain their mouth health in between dental visits, while avoiding caries created by the pathogenic bacteria that live below the gum line?

ProBiora: a Simple, Effective, At-Home Step to Better Mouth Health

“I recommend adding ProBiora probiotics for the mouth to kids’ daily dental hygiene routines,” says Dr. Sarah Poteet, DDS, owner of Dallas Family Dentistry in Dallas, TX. “ProBiora is the original oral-care probiotic, backed by more than 30 years of clinical research.”

ProBiora Kids oral-care probiotics repopulate the mouth with clinically proven beneficial bacteria to crowd out the pathogenic bacteria that cause caries. By rebalancing the mouth’s oral biome, ProBiora oral-care probiotics can make a difference in your patients’ oral health, providing fresher breath, whiter teeth, and a healthier mouth.

Tasty Flavors, Easy to Use

Thanks to the delicious Orange Creamsicle flavor of ProBiora Kids, even tweens and little ones (whose brushing and flossing habits are often not the best) will be encouraged to develop a solid nightly dental care routine that helps keep caries from forming.

With just one ProBiora tablet per day, kids can see whiter teeth, fresher breath, and a healthier mouth within weeks, and maintain that wonderful “just-had-my-teeth-cleaned” feeling!

Supporting Patients’ Total Body Health

In addition to supporting oral health, ProBiora also helps to support patients’ total body health. When left untreated, caries caused by bad bacteria can lead to more serious health issues affecting the heart, lungs, kidneys, and even brain development in children.
