A new study confirms that chewing gum from BioGaia containing Lactobacillus reuteri Prodentis reduces gingivitis (inflamed gums). The study also shows that the Lactobacillus reuteri Prodentis can interact directly with the human immune system to reduce inflammation. The study, published by Acta Odontologica Scandinavica, was performed by Professor Svante Twetman and his team in the Department of Cariology and Endodontics at the University of Copenhagen in Denmark.
