Summary

Objectives: This study investigates the effects of daily consumption of probiotic ayran drink on gingival inflammation and the development of experimental gingivitis.

Methods: A total of 54volunteer students were included in the present randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial.The participants were divided randomly into two groups; The Control group consisted of 27 participants who consumed placebo ayran, while the 27 participants of the Test group consumed probiotic ayran (containing Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium bifidum) for 42 days twice a day.After 42 days, mechanical plaque control was interrupted for 5 days. The clinical parameters of gingivitis; Plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), probing bleeding (BOP), probing depth (PPD) were recorded at baseline, day 42 (beginning of experimental gingivitis) and day 47 (the end of experimental gingivitis). At the same time points, gingival crevicular fluid had been collected for analysis of matrix metalloproteinase - 8 (MMP-8).
