Your oral health goes far beyond having clean teeth or fresh breath. It’s home to an invisible but fundamental ecosystem: the oral microbiota. Maintaining its balance not only promotes a healthy smile but also influences your overall well-being, as the mouth is the gateway to the body and connects directly to the organism.

When the oral microbiota becomes unbalanced, problems such as bad breath, cavities, gingivitis, and even alterations in the gut microbiota can arise. Therefore, caring for it should be an essential part of your daily routine.

What is the oral microbiota and why should you take care of it? 

The oral microbiota is made up of millions of microorganisms that live in balance within the mouth. This ecosystem protects the teeth and gums and helps maintain the health of the entire body.

When this balance is disrupted, harmful bacteria multiply and can cause:

• Chronic bad breath
• Cavities and plaque
• Gum inflammation or gingivitis
• Digestive problems or alterations in the gut microbiota

Conversely, a balanced microbiota strengthens your natural defences and keeps your mouth healthy and protected against potential threats.

Factors that disrupt the balance of the oral microbiota 

There are habits and conditions that can affect the harmony of the oral microbiome:

• Inadequate oral hygiene: superficial brushing or harsh products that damage beneficial bacteria.
• A diet high in sugars and processed foods: promotes the growth of harmful bacteria.
• Stress and lack of sleep: reduce the body’s ability to maintain a healthy balance.
• Smoking and excessive alcohol consumption: affect the gums and the microbiome.
• Use of products containing alcohol or SLS: alter the natural flora and cause imbalances.

How to Care for and Improve Your Oral Microbiota

Caring for your oral microbiota requires combining healthy habits with products specifically formulated to protect it. Here are the key steps:

Use products that respect your microbiome: Avoid harsh products and opt for formulas that protect the natural flora.

• Maintain thorough oral hygiene: Brush after every meal, clean your tongue, and use dental floss to remove food debris and bacteria where your toothbrush can’t reach.
• Balanced diet and probiotics: Fruits, vegetables, and fermented foods like yogurt or kefir provide nutrients that strengthen the oral microbiota.
• Constant hydration: Saliva helps neutralise acids and control harmful bacteria. Drinking enough water is essential to maintain balance.
• Avoid harmful habits: Smoking and excessive alcohol consumption affect the microbiome and increase the likelihood of oral diseases
