(57) [Summary] [Structure] An oral composition for inhibiting or eliminating adhesions of dental caries, which comprises a polysaccharide selected from the group consisting of funoran, i-carrageenan, furceleran and gellan gum as an active ingredient. [Effect] It effectively acts on the inhibition of the attachment of carious fungus to the acquired film and the detachment of the carious fungus from the acquired film, eventually suppressing the formation of plaque and preventing caries. |
