Advanced Oral Probiotics
A concise clinical primer for your team — what the formula is, how it works in the mouth, which patients it's for, and how to recommend it.
A dentist-formulated, oral-specific probiotic
Unlike gut probiotics, these strains are selected to colonize the mouth and throat — not the digestive tract — working directly where oral disease begins. Formulated by Dr. Paul O'Malley.
7 strains
Clinically studied blend
6 billion CFU
Per serving (2 tablets)
18-month potency
Live-Bac — no refrigeration
Chewable
Mint or strawberry-vanilla
How it works in the mouth
The mechanism behind a balanced oral microbiome
-
Introduce
Chewing releases beneficial strains directly into the mouth and throat, where oral disease starts.
-
Colonize
BLIS K12 and M18 establish in the oral cavity — unlike gut probiotics, they work locally.
-
Crowd out
Beneficial bacteria compete with and displace odor- and decay-causing pathogens.
-
Rebalance
A healthier microbiome supports fresher breath, calmer gums, and a less acidic pH.
The 7-strain formula
6 billion CFU per serving — the role of each strain
S. salivarius BLIS K12
Patented BLISClinically studied to reduce bad-breath compounds and support throat, tonsil, and oral health.
S. salivarius BLIS M18
Patented BLISTargets bacteria that contribute to plaque buildup and gum irritation, for stronger, healthier gums.
Lactobacillus reuteri
Supports gum tissue health and helps reduce oral inflammation while promoting a balanced microbiome.
Lactobacillus rhamnosus
Reinforces oral and immune defenses while helping inhibit decay-causing bacteria.
Lactobacillus salivarius
Promotes saliva flow and helps control odor-causing bacteria for lasting freshness.
Lactobacillus paracasei
Aids in maintaining microbial balance and supports fresh breath.
Lactobacillus acidophilus
Strengthens the oral immune response and supports healthy teeth and gums.
Which patients it's for
Consider recommending to patients presenting with:
- Chronic bad breath / halitosis
- Gingivitis-prone patients
- Post-scaling & periodontal maintenance
- Dry mouth
- Post-antibiotic microbiome imbalance
- Cavity-prone patients (incl. kids)
- Recurrent sore throat / tonsil concerns
How to recommend it
A simple protocol your team can share with patients
-
Usage
First month
Chew 2 tablets twice daily — 2 in the morning and 2 before bed.
Maintenance
Reduce to 2 tablets nightly, after brushing and flossing.
Let it work
Avoid food or drink for ~30 minutes after use so strains can colonize.
-
What patients can expect
- Days
Many patients notice fresher breath within the first few days of consistent use.
- 3–4 weeks
Gum comfort and overall oral balance typically improve with continued daily use.
Restoring oral balance is a gradual process — consistency matters more than dose size.

Patient talking points
Quick answers for the questions patients ask most
How is this different from a gut probiotic?
These strains are selected to colonize the mouth and throat and act locally — a gut probiotic won't establish or work in the oral cavity.
Why chew at night?
Taking it after brushing, before bed, lets the beneficial bacteria populate the mouth overnight when saliva flow is lowest and there's no food to wash them away.
Is it safe with dental work or other products?
Yes — it's a food-grade supplement designed for daily use alongside brushing, flossing, and routine care. Consistency is what drives results.
Does it need refrigeration?
No. Patented Live-Bac technology keeps the cultures viable for 18 months at room temperature.
