Propolis as a Cariostatic Agent in Lozenges and Impact of Storage Conditions on the Stability of Propolis [PDF]
Propolis is known as a source of compounds with strong antibacterial activity. Due to the antibacterial effect against streptococci of the oral cavity, it seems to be a useful agent in decreasing the accumulation of dental plaque. It is rich in polyphenols which are responsible for a beneficial impact on the oral microbiota and antibacterial effect ...
