Overview

Streptococcus salivarius L12 is a specific probiotic strain of the bacterium *Streptococcus salivarius*, which is a prominent member of the healthy human oral microbiota. This strain is primarily investigated and utilized for its potential to improve oral health and manage halitosis (bad breath). The mechanism of action involves the competitive exclusion of pathogenic bacteria and the production of bacteriocin-like inhibitory substances (BLIS), which are antimicrobial peptides that inhibit the growth of volatile sulfur compound (VSC)-producing bacteria such as *Porphyromonas gingivalis* and *Solobacterium moorei*. By colonizing the oral cavity and the surface of the tongue, L12 helps maintain a balanced microbial ecosystem, thereby reducing the production of malodorous gases and supporting overall periodontal health.
