Layer-by-Layer Coated Probiotics Enhance Caries Prevention and Remineralization

Posted: January 17, 2025
The article explores the use of layer-by-layer coated probiotics with tannic acid-Ca2+ and casein phosphopeptide complexes for caries prevention and enamel remineralization. This innovative approach enhances the anti-caries activity of probiotics by improving colonization, resistance to lysozyme, and inhibiting cariogenic biofilm formation. The coated probiotics also show excellent remineralization efficacy, preventing tooth decay in a caries-induced rat model with good biocompatibility. This study highlights the significance of probiotics coating in combating dental caries through antibiofilm and remineralization mechanisms.
