BLIS K12™ And Gum Disease
Periodontal (gum) disease is one of the most common infectious diseases
seen in humans.
It is characterized by gingival inflammation (red swollen gums and bleeding) and the loss of connective tissue and bone from around the roots of the teeth which can lead to eventual tooth loss.
Key Facts of gum disease.
GOOD NEWS
Streptococcus salivarius K12 
has been shown in the laboratory to inhibit (or restrain) the growth of certain bacteria implicated in periodontal disease including strains of Prevotella intermedia, Porphyromonas gingivalis and Fusobacterium nucleatum.
New Science
A study by Adam et al (2011) showed that Streptococcus salivarius K12 and Streptococcus salivarius M18 reduced the expression of immune cytokines associated with inflammatory conditions like gingivitis and periodontitis concluding that “these strains may offer novel preventative and therapeutic options for patients suffering from both diseases”.

2011 Survey of Dental Care Affordability and Accessibility: Highlights from the Nationally Representative Survey (Prof D Neil & C Govan, The University of Southern California)
Dental healthcare in America today…
Substantial economic and practical barriers to quality dental healthcare persist in America today. Approximately 50% of Americans lack dental insurance and, in 2010, dental premiums increased at a higher rate than medical insurance premiums (NADP). The US Surgeon General described the barriers to quality, affordable care as a “silent epidemic,” leading to 164 million hours of lost productivity annually. Individuals without dental insurance are dramatically less likely to get recommended care and thus are more likely to develop the major health conditions (e.g., diabetes, heart disease, stroke) linked with poor oral health.

Association Between Respiratory Disease in Hospitalized Patients and Periodontal Disease: A Cross-Sectional Study
"Recent research indicated that periodontal infection may worsen systemic diseases, including pulmonary disease. Respiratory infections, such as pneumonia and the exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, involve the aspiration of bacteria from the oropharynx into the lower respiratory tract."
Conclusion: "The findings of the present analysis support an association between respiratory and periodontal disease."
