Abstract

Adult extrinsic black stains on teeth, caused by bacterial colonization, impact aesthetics and confidence. Conventional treatments can be abrasive and have a high recurrence rate. This pilot case study explores probiotics as an adjunctive approach. Direct application of probiotic powder over the black stains of the teeth was carried out prior to routine home care. Results showed black stain removal was possible with tooth brush and dental floss. Saliva and biofilm samples were analyzed via 16S rRNA sequencing. Microbiome revealed a noticeable reduction in Corynebacterium, a key black stain-associated bacterium, with slight shifts in major phyla like Actinobacteriota and Firmicutes. This case study aimed to evaluate the potential of probiotics in reducing black stains on teeth and assess the associated microbiome changes.
益生菌减少与微生物有关的牙斑:一种潜在的方法
成人牙齿上的外源性黑色污渍,由细菌定植引起,影响美观和自信。传统的治疗方法可能是磨蚀性的,并且复发率很高。这个试点案例研究探索益生菌作为辅助方法。在常规家庭护理之前,将益生菌粉直接涂抹在牙齿的黑色污渍上。结果表明,用牙刷和牙线可以去除黑色污渍。唾液和生物膜样品通过16S rRNA测序进行分析。微生物组显示,杆状杆菌(一种关键的黑色染色相关细菌)的数量明显减少,放线菌门和厚壁菌门等主要门的数量略有变化。本案例研究旨在评估益生菌在减少牙齿黑斑方面的潜力,并评估相关的微生物组变化。

期刊介绍: he Journal of Dental Sciences (JDS), published quarterly, is the official and open access publication of the Association for Dental Sciences of the Republic of China (ADS-ROC). The precedent journal of the JDS is the Chinese Dental Journal (CDJ) which had already been covered by MEDLINE in 1988. As the CDJ continued to prove its importance in the region, the ADS-ROC decided to move to the international community by publishing an English journal. Hence, the birth of the JDS in 2006. The JDS is indexed in the SCI Expanded since 2008. It is also indexed in Scopus, and EMCare, ScienceDirect, SIIC Data Bases. The topics covered by the JDS include all fields of basic and clinical dentistry. Some manuscripts focusing on the study of certain endemic diseases such as dental caries and periodontal diseases in particular regions of any country as well as oral pre-cancers, oral cancers, and oral submucous fibrosis related to betel nut chewing habit are also considered for publication. Besides, the JDS also publishes articles about the efficacy of a new treatment modality on oral verrucous hyperplasia or early oral squamous cell carcinoma.
