NewsWhy you may get future vaccines via dental floss
Researchers have demonstrated a novel vaccine delivery method in an animal model, using dental floss to introduce vaccine via the tissue between the teeth and gums. It stimulates the production of antibodies in mucosal surfaces, such as the lining of the nose and lungs.
