Development of probiotic orodispersible tablets using mucoadhesive polymers for buccal mucoadhesion
Probiotic bacteria, such as different lactobacilli strains, have successfully been used to treat gingivitis and periodontitis or caries. By formulating probiotics as orodispersible tablet (ODT), the benefits of this dosage form could be utilized. Without any further measures, the probiotic bacteria will be eliminated too fast from the intended site of ...
