Compositional Stability of a Salivary Bacterial Population against Supragingival Microbiota Shift following Periodontal Therapy
16 Aug 2012
Abstract excerpt
Supragingival plaque is permanently in contact with saliva. However, the extent to which the microbiota contributes to the salivary bacterial population remains unclear. We compared the compositional shift in the salivary bacterial population with that in supragingival plaque following periodontal therapy. Samples were collected from 19 patients with periodontitis before and after periodontal therapy (mean sample...
