Host–microbiome interactions in apical periodontitis: The endodontic microbiome in relation to circulatory immunologic markers

Abstract excerpt

AIM: To explore microbial differences in the endodontic infection of teeth with primary or secondary apical periodontitis (AP), with or without symptomatology. Additionally, to investigate if these differences are depicted in immunologic markers in blood. METHODOLOGY: Twenty-nine teeth with primary or secondary AP were extracted and cryo-pulverized. Blood was drawn from the subjects at three different time-points...
