ABSTRACT

Numerous microorganisms inhabit the human oral cavity, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, archaea, and protozoa, forming a complex ecological community that impacts oral and systemic health. Microbiota-associated diseases are the most dominant oral diseases, such as dental caries and periodontal diseases. Furthermore, increasing shreds of evidence have sustained that many systemic diseases are associated with alterations in the oral ecosystem, like tumors. The present control of dental plaque-related diseases is nonspecific and focuses on removing plaque by mechanical means. Due to this actuality of the oral microbiome, new strategies founded on the microbiome’s modulation that aim to support and reestablish a healthy oral ecosystem are gaining ever greater importance. The present review aims to describe the concept of dysbiosis and its correlation with pathological processes that can affect the oral cavity.
