The mouth; the beginning of it all…
This is a common condition which is usually caused by gram positive bacteria. If the organism is Streptococcal Pyrogenesis , there is a risk of developing Rheumatic Fever. Often multiple different bacteria exists in the tonsillar crypts, which can be difficult to culture. Treatment with antibiotics to prevent Rheumatic Fever or tonsillar abscess formation is usually advisable.
There are hundreds of germs that inhabit your mouth. If you suffer from periodontal (or gum) disease, you have open wounds in your gums that allow these bacteria to enter directly into your blood stream and circulate throughout your body. Many of the bacteria normally found in the mouth enter your bloodstream through infected gums and can relocate to other parts of your body, with the potential of creating disease in organs and systems. Most people do not realize that the cause of many of our illnesses starts with the opening of our mouth. The mouth, the most perfect breading and storage facility available to germs in general. We think we control them when we apply mouthwashes, but most mouthwashes also kill those bacteria that we need for, for instance, a positive intestal fauna and flora a bit more down under from our mouth. The result is usually a totally imbalanced and unnatural digestive system but also, in the case where we believe that a simple morning and evening toothbrush will do the job, the promotion of so many unwanted bacteria overnight that it is not surprising we develop so many illnesses we do not know the origin of.
One of the worse developments in modern times was the “invention” of refined sugar. Streptococcus mutants, harmful bacteria species inhabiting our mouths, where “in balance” within the ecological system of our mouth “before refined sugar”.
After the introduction of refined sugar Streptococcus mutants became the enemy. This species thrives upon refined sugar and, as a part of its digestive process, converts sugar into acid.
Before man began refining sugar, the bicarbonate ions in our saliva possessed the ability to counteract the acid it produced. With the arrival of refined sugar on the scene, and Streptococcus mutants’ insatiable appetite for it, acid production increased to the point where the saliva could no longer counteract it. The excess acid produced erodes our teeth, causes cavities, and subsequent visits to the dentist.
You can probably not imagine how many foods of today contain sugar or refer to sugar. Sugar is only one of the problems why our teeth rot away but there are many more factors developing in our mouth that have a influence to our health in general, outlook, skin disorders etc.

What’s that living in my mouth?
YOUR MOUTH IS A JUNGLE!
For the bacteria, fungi, protozoa, and viruses inhabiting our mouths, life is a piece of cake, or whatever else we have eaten. What we lunch on, they munch on.
In fact, our mouths are ecosystems for them, as the weather forecast remains the same at 95º F, unless we are ill, the level of humidity at 100%, and the guaranteed a free meal on, actually in, the mouth is unconditional. They select their own living quarters, with some preferring life between the teeth, others preferring the space between the gums and the teeth, others preferring the roof of the mouth, and yet others preferring the cracks in the front or in the back of the tongue. They do, however, work for this luxurious lifestyle, by performing such tasks as eating each other, fending off bad species of bacteria, etc., manufacturing different products, and eating the food that becomes lodged in parts of our mouths.
The only harmful species of bacteria inhabiting our mouths is Streptococcus mutants, the cavity causing bacteria. Microbiologists believe that initially, this bacteria was our friend, and played a useful role in our mouths, just as the other species of bacteria do. As man progressed down the evolutionary timeline and began refining raw sugar, Streptococcus mutants became the enemy. This species thrives upon refined sugar and, as a part of its digestive process, converts sugar into acid.
Before man began refining sugar, the bicarbonate ions in our saliva possessed the ability to counteract the acid it produced. With the arrival of refined sugar on the scene, and Streptococcus mutants’ insatiable appetite for it, acid production increased to the point where the saliva could no longer counteract it. The excess acid produced erodes our teeth, causes cavities, and subsequent visits to the dentist.
The more than 100 species of bacteria, and hundreds of species of fungi, protozoa, and viruses that have taken up residence in our mouths is difficult to fathom. Microbiologists estimate that, in addition to these known species, there are up to 500 other living, breathing organisms inhabiting our mouths, although only 50 have been identified and named. The sheer number of these creatures is astronomical, considering the fact that our mouths contain more bacteria than the entire world’s population, and the fact that our bodies house approximately one trillion bacteria.
What is a person to do about these squatters? Nothing. Our bodies provide an ecosystem for them and, in return, they defend us from the invasion of bad bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa, with the exception of Streptococcus mutants and a couple of other undesirable species.
Our dentists’ advice to brush and to floss our teeth on a regular basis should be taken, as doing so helps to maintain healthy levels of these creatures from between 1,000 to 100,000 per tooth.
Enjoy your next meal…they certainly will!

Oral Anal Sex Safety
There are actually far more dangerous pathogens in the typical human mouth than there are in your anus/rectum. The mouth is an “entry point” into the body. The mouth is the favorite way of many bad germs to get into our body 24/7. Examples of how deadly mouth bacteria are can be found in the occasional case of fatal septicemia resulting from a mouth piercing that allowed “mouth bacteria” into the blood stream. Once there it went crazy and killed the person. The majority of people in the USA have oral herpes, not anal herpes. Those that have anal herpes got it from someones mouth. The Anus is an “exit point.” It is literally the “opening to inside your body.” That being the case, if it were loaded with dangerous germs, you’d be extremely sick if not close to death. The human body cannot survive long with a butt load of dangerous germs living in the anus or rectum. The Anus is part of the intestinal tract and in a generally healthy person is home to “good bacteria.” They work with your body to keep you healthy, not make you sick. Licking the anus of a generally healthy individual without parasites or bacterial infection of the intestines nor viral is far less dangerous than kissing that person in terms of germ transfer. You are far more likely to get almost every venereal disease from kissing someone without even having sex than you are from licking their anus. The symptoms of many venereal diseases in the mouth are asymptomatic or almost so. At most they might cause a scratchy throat – but nothing that would stop someone from swapping saliva and spreading their case of oral VD, something which the NIH has recently become aware is actually a big factor in their ability to control the spread of syphilis – they assumed incorrectly it was almost always due to genital contact. An “unhealthy” anus on the other hand is NOT something most people would touch or even come near. Most people find other people’s anal scent offensive, and that alone is enough reason to steer clear, even if it’s harmless. Add on top of that odor the excessive flatulence and mucus discharges that would accompany an anal infection and you get something that would make most people pass out before they ever got close enough to contract anything. Ironically, if you are one of those people who has problems with his digestive system (outside of parasites) or after a round of harsh antibiotics have seriously upset your internals, licking a generally healthy person’s anus could be a very good healthy smart thing to do, for it is the quickest way you can gain access to a butt load of “healthy, vigor-restoring good bacteria” in that person’s body. Lick them and many will survive the passage through the stomach and make a new home for themselves in your intestines and immediately set to work repairing your intestinal problems by restoring the balance you need to have properly functioning, healthy digestive tract. HOWEVER, conceptually speaking licking some ones anus is one of the most repulsive things many people can think of doing. So even if it is a great idea to easily solve many common intestinal ailments, it’s extremely unlikely to catch on. Only when it comes to parasites is licking an anus “high risk” but fortunately in the western world parasite problems are often big news, because it’s so rare. If one lives in a 3rd world country, because the parasite problems are so widespread, anus licking could be quite detrimental to your health.
- Absolutely not! Waste materials come out of the anal and no matter how much you wash it it won’t be clean enough.
- Well You can do it with dental dam to prevent getting disease.
- That is absolutely disgusting! I wouldn’t lick a butt in my life!
Bad breath is usually caused by oral bacteria.
The most common cause of halitosis is the anaerobic bacteria that live in a person’s mouth.
For the majority of people (85 to 90% of those who have bad breath [halitosis]), the single most frequent cause of breath odor problems is bacteria that live in their mouth. Bacteria, just like humans, go through their lives consuming foods and excreting wastes. The waste products produced by some oral bacteria are sulfur compounds and it is this type of odoriferous waste product that usually lies at the root of a person’s breath problems.
Have you ever smelled a rotten egg? The stench associated with rotten eggs is caused by the sulfur compound hydrogen sulfide. The stinky smell emanating from feed lots and barnyards is one created by the sulfur compound methyl mercaptan. The odor you associate with the ocean is in part due to the presence of dimethyl sulfide. And each of these types of sulfur compounds is also excreted as a waste product by the bacteria that live in our mouths.
As a class, dentists refer to these compounds as “volatile sulfur compounds” (VSC’s). The term “volatile” simply describes the fact that these compounds evaporate readily, even at normal temperatures. The extreme volatility of VSC’s explains how these compounds have the ability to offend those around us, instantly.
While volatile sulfur compounds are the principle causative agents of bad breath, the bacteria that live in our mouth produce other waste products too. Some of these have their own unique and unpleasant smell. A few of these waste byproducts are:
• Cadaverine – the smell we associate with corpses.
• Putrescine – the compound responsible for much of the foul odor produced by decaying meat.
• Skatole – the characteristic smell of human fecal matter.
• Isovaleric Acid – the smell of sweaty feet.
How surprised you must be to discover that this wonderful mix of compounds emanates from the mouths of humans. And no one is an exception. Everyone has some amount of these unpleasant compounds in their breath. Fortunately, however, at low levels these odorous compounds cannot be detected by the human nose. It’s only when the amount of these compounds becomes elevated that others can detect our “bad” breath.
Bad breath is caused by waste products produced by anaerobic oral bacteria.
Most of the compounds that cause bad breath (hydrogen sulfide, methyl mercaptan, cadaverine, putrescine, skatole) are the waste products of anaerobic bacteria (more specifically Gram-negative anaerobic bacteria). The term “anaerobic” describes the fact that these types of bacteria grow best in environments that are devoid of oxygen.
A person’s mouth can be home for hundreds of different species of bacteria. And on going in our mouth, at all times, is a constant battle for living space between the types of bacteria which do create waste products that cause bad breath and those that don’t. And it is the precise balance between the relative numbers of these two different types of bacteria that will ultimately determine the quality of a person’s breath.
Dental plaque accumulation (the whitish film that forms on teeth both above and below the gum line and also on the tongue) can tip the scales in favor of the odor causing bacteria. You might be surprised to learn that a layer of plaque as thin as 0.1 to 0.2 millimeters (about the same thickness as a dollar bill) can be oxygen depleted, thus creating the precise type of environment in which anaerobic bacteria will flourish.
So, as more and more plaque builds up in a person’s mouth the bacteria that cause bad breath gain available living space and proliferate, thus increasing the level of odor causing compounds that escape with each breath that is exhaled.
What is the food source for the anaerobic bacteria that cause bad breath?
Most of the volitile sulfur compounds that cause bad breath are waste products created by anaerobic bacteria as they digest proteins. This means that as we consume food items such as meat and fish, the bacteria that live in our mouths are getting a meal too and subsequently producing the waste products that cause our bad breath.
Even without an obvious protein source, like just having eaten a cheeseburger, it’s not hard for the anaerobic bacteria that live in our mouths to find a meal. There are always protein food sources floating around in our mouths such as dead skin cells or one of the many protein compounds found in saliva. And then also, especially for those who are not diligent with brushing and flossing, there is always the leftover food debris from yesterday’s meal, and the meal before that, and the one before that….
High protein foods.
Meat, fish and seafood, eggs, and dairy foods (milk, cheeses, and yogurt) are all obvious examples of foods high in protein. Most of us get about two thirds of our needed protein from eating them. Other protein sources include cereal grains (and cereal grain products), nuts, and the seeds from pod bearing plants (peas, beans, and lentils). The ingredients found in many of our favorite deserts (especially cakes and pies) can make these food items surprisingly high protein sources.
Where do the bacteria that cause bad breath live?
For most of us the bacteria that cause our bad breath live on the surface of our tongue. There can be, however, other locations (which are typically secondary in nature) that harbor these culprit bacteria as well.
Bad breath source: Bacteria that live on a person’s tongue.
Think back to the breath testing experiments described at the beginning of this topic. While the smell emanating from the anterior portion of a person’s tongue can be unpleasant, it usually it isn’t the source of their breath problems. The most common odor-producing region of the tongue is the posterior (back) portion.
Go to a mirror, stick your tongue out and take a look at it. With many people, you can actually see a whitish coating on the tongue’s surface. The further back (toward the throat) you look, the whiter this layer usually appears. This is dental plaque and it is chocked full of the types of anaerobic bacteria that cause bad breath.
The type of surface texture found on a person’s tongue will influence the amount of coating that it tends to accumulate. People whose tongues are deeply grooved or furrowed will be more likely to accumulate a bacterial laden coating, as opposed to those who have a smoother tongue surface.
It only takes a coating that has a thickness of 0.1 to 0.2 millimeters (about the same thickness as a dollar bill) to provide an environment depleted of oxygen. This type of environment is referred to as “anaerobic” and it is precisely the type of environment in which the bacteria that cause bad breath will flourish.
Research has shown that there is a direct correlation between the amount of coating that exists on a person’s tongue and the total number of anaerobic bacteria that are present. And as you can probably guess, when the anaerobic bacterial count on a person’s tongue is reduced there is usually a direct correlation, an improvement, in the odor emanating from their mouth.
Bad breath source: Bacteria that live at and below a person’s gum line.
The type of bacteria that cause bad breath can find a suitable home in places other than just on the surface of a person’s tongue. When you floss you may have noticed that at times you have dredged up a foul taste or odor. Maybe this odor is more noticeable as you floss between the teeth that are relatively further toward the back of your mouth. These locations are places where the bacteria that cause bad breath often find a cozy home. The taste and smell you get when flossing these locations is evidence of this.
Even in a relatively healthy mouth, bacteria can and do find anaerobic (oxygen deprived) environments in which to live underneath the gum line, both around and in between teeth. These anaerobic environments are, however, even more numerous and available in the mouths of people who have experienced periodontal disease (”gum disease”).
This is because periodontal disease can cause damage to the bone that surrounds a person’s teeth. This bone destruction leads to the formation of deep spaces that lie between the teeth and gums (termed “periodontal pockets”). The deep recesses of periodontal pockets can be difficult, if not impossible, to clean effectively. This makes them an ideal anaerobic environment for the types of bacteria that cause bad breath.

When I wake up in the morning I brush my teeth before I sleep at night I brush my teeth. Why? Well it is because I like to think of my mouth as clean and I like to feel the cleanliness of my teeth with my tongue. Don’t you like to think of your mouth as a clean place? I was astonished to lean that just because my mouth felt “clean” didn’t mean it was sterile. The best oral hygiene strategy in the world cannot rid the mouth of bacteria and in my opinion this is not always bad (more about this later).
Think about the environment that is your mouth dark, wet, and warm. This climate with the occasional meal running through it is probably one of the best places bacteria have to live. It has been estimated that the average human mouth has over 400 species if bacteria, their combined populations total to billions and billions of distinctive organisms, (Stevens J. It’s a jungle in there. BioScience, 1996:46:1-5).
The good news is that most oral bacteria are not harmful. Many oral bacteria are helpful. This is definitely good news! What this means is that we need not worry about eliminating all bacteria in our mouths. Some mouth washes do eliminate all bacteria for a short amount of time, but this is not necessarily safe.
What Bio-EthiquE Litol enables us to do is to focus killing specific bacteria – such as S. Mutants, the biggest bacterial culprit when it comes to tooth decay. Still other bacteria cause periodontal disease which attack the gums and bone that surround and support the teeth.
Why fight S. Mutants?
They turn sucrose into acid.
It is important to focus on controlling S. Mutants. S. Mutants ferment carbohydrates and sugars into an acid. Grapes are fermented into wine, but sucrose is fermented into a much less palatable product- lactic acid. Our pH level decreases in our mouths shortly after the consumption of sucrose based candy and chewing of gum.
Acid eats away tooth enamel.
Although tooth enamel is a very hard tissue, it is very vulnerable to acid. Acid produced by bacteria breaks away tooth enamel much like acid rain corrodes marble structures. Tooth decay caused by acid is called demineralization.
Demineralization constantly occurs very slowly while it is constantly balanced by re-mineralization. Teeth are able to remodel themselves by adding minerals-especially calcium- into the enamel. However, re-mineralization may only occur when conditions inside of the mouth are not too acidic.
As long as the mouth’s pH level is not too acidic, the mouth is able to cover newly formed small cavities with new enamel. Although they may not be able to completely fill a hole of a cavity it usually is able to seal the cavity from further erosion. Remineralization cannot succeed when acid producing S. Mutants are not kept under control.
As you may have noticed our body as an method for fighting cavities on its own, all we need to do is empower our own bodies to heal itself.
S. mutants thrive in an acidic environment.
Not all bacteria can survive in an acidic environment. S. Mutants are able to. S. Mutants secrete acid themselves and are able to live in acid. In a way, it is survival of the fittest- the acidic environment that S. Mutants create allows them to be able to take over environments unto themselves by killing other weaker and less harmful bacteria with their acid. This is the method in which S. Mutants are able to become stronger, they kill all the competition and multiply.
They turn sucrose into sticky plaque.
As I have mentioned before many bacteria are not harmful. They can be easily washed out of the mouth with saliva or food. Saliva balances acid because it contains alkaline properties. Acid produced by bacteria like S. Mutants is not harmful until it has concentrated a specific area which is exactly why sucrose can be devastating to your teeth.
Sucrose is the only carbohydrate that can be changed by S. Mutants into polysaccharides. When the S. Mutans secrete this type of carbohydrate they are covered with a sweet and sticky substance. This allows them to stick to anything- especially dental enamel.
Polysaccharides produced from sucrose hold bacterial colonies together that form dental plaque. We all know that plaque is harmful and leads to cavities. Plaque forms at the surface of the tooth. Plaque actually helps bacteria and acid by protecting it from saliva, which could neutralize the acid on contact. Instead, the acid is allowed to eat away at the tooth.
They store sucrose.
Dental plaque breaks down sucrose quickly. Lactic acid levels increase quickly when any piece of sucrose candy or gum is put in the mouth. Bacteria can unfortunately store sucrose inside of polysaccharide cells to use when we are eating less sugar.
