The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effect of CBD candy versus sugar free candy on reducing the number of bacteria causing tooth decay, in adults The main question is to see whether CBD have any effect on reducing the number of Streptococcus mutans, in the oral cavity the main bacteria causing tooth decay. Participants will be randomly placed in a group, and assigned to take either CBD-infused lozenge (if in the experimental group) or a sugar-free candy (if in the control group) once a day for 15 days. A sample of saliva will be collected and analyzed in a lab before and after consumption of the candy to see whether either product could reduce the harmful bacteria in the mouth.
