NORTH BERGEN, N.J.—Frutarom USA launched BLIS M18 Oral Probiotic, a patented oral cavity probiotic for oral protection. BLIS 18 was developed from a specific strain of S. salivarius—a common and beneficial oral bacterium. It has been clinically proven to promote the heath of the mouth and oral cavity by continuously supporting and increasing the underlying health of the teeth and gums.
BLIS M18 is an advanced probiotic that, used in conjunction with regular oral hygiene practices, can establish a healthy balance of bacteria in the mouth, and naturally protect the teeth and gums from oral and dental pathogens. A daily intake of BLIS M18 can aid in protecting teeth from bacteria known to cause tooth decay, while protecting teeth from erosion caused by high-acid foods and helping break up dental plaque.
BLIS M18 is derived from S. salivarius M18, a proprietary strain of microorganism that produce the BLIS antibacterial molecules, Salivaricins A, 9 and X that actively target and kill pathogens. This allows BLIS M18 to provide a wider range of activity against dental pathogens.
Because BLIS M18 is an oral cavity probiotic, ideal applications are those that allow direct contact with the mouth, such as: lozenges and chewable tablets, chewing gums, stick packs, fast-melt tablets and powder drinks.
