Microbial signatures of health, gingivitis, and periodontitis
The subgingival crevice harbors diverse microbial communities. Shifts in the composition of
these communities occur with the development of gingivitis and periodontitis, which are …

Bioadhesion in the oral cavity and approaches for biofilm management by surface modifications
Background All soft and solid surface structures in the oral cavity are covered by the
acquired pellicle followed by bacterial colonization. This applies for natural structures as …

Evaluation of 16S rRNA gene sequencing for species and strain-level microbiome analysis
The 16S rRNA gene has been a mainstay of sequence-based bacterial analysis for
decades. However, high-throughput sequencing of the full gene has only recently become a …

Lessons learned and unlearned in periodontal microbiology
Periodontal diseases are initiated by bacterial species living in polymicrobial biofilms at or
below the gingival margin and progress largely as a result of the inflammation elicited by …
