Caries Prevention Clinical Trial
Official title:
Effect of the Consumption of Probiotics Lactobacilli Enriched Milk in the Reduction of Incidence of Carious Lesions in Preschool Children
Probiotics are microorganisms that when administered in adequate amounts can confer health
benefits. In vitro and clinical studies support the idea that lactobacilli have protective
effects on oral health. A recent study in which preschoolers consumed milk drinks enriched
with Lactobacillus rhamnosus, reported a reduction in caries, as well as additional benefits
to children.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of daily consumption of milk beverages
enriched with Lactobacillus rhamnosus on the incidence of caries in preschool Chilean
children.
In this randomized controlled trial, preschool children belonging to Integra Foundation will be invited to participate. After obtaining parent´s informed consent, clinical and microbiological testing of saliva at baseline, 6 m, 12m and 18m will be performed. Differences in prevalence and incidence of caries, dmft and microbial diversity between groups will be assessed. ;
