Oral Microbiome: Symbiosis, Dysbiosis and Microbiome Interventions for Maintaining Oral and Systemic Health

From Dentistry Made Simple Dentistry Made Simple

Explores the complex relationship between mouth-dwelling microorganisms and human health. The sources describe the transition of the oral cavity from a symbiotic state of health to dysbiosis, a microbial imbalance linked to both dental issues and systemic conditions like diabetes, cancer, and dementia. Key sections outline how the microbiome is first acquired during birth and infancy and how it is subsequently shaped by hormonal shifts, aging, and diet. The text also emphasizes the oral-gut axis, illustrating how bacteria and inflammatory signals travel between the mouth and the digestive system. Finally, the authors review therapeutic interventions, such as probiotics and biofilm transplants, aimed at restoring a healthy microbial equilibrium. Knowledge is presented through a global collaboration of experts to highlight the necessity of interdisciplinary medical and dental care.
