Summary: This study investigated the impact of sugar consumption on plaque microbiota characteristics in caries subjects and caries-free subjects. The results revealed that the low sugar consumption group (CL group) had a higher abundance of cariogenic microorganisms, while the high sugar consumption group (FH group) had a healthy microbial community and self-stabilizing functional potential.

Summary: This review examines the current scientific evidence on the oral microflora in children with cleft lip and/or palate (CLP). The results of the available studies are inconclusive, and further research is needed to gain a comprehensive understanding of the oral microbiota and potential implications for oral health management in this population.

Summary: The study indicates a shift in oral microbiome in patients with moderate/severe dental fluorosis, with certain bacterial species enriched in moderate and severe fluorosis. These bacteria may play important roles in oral health and related diseases in patients with moderate and severe fluorosis.

Summary: This study investigates the diversity and structure of microbial communities in saliva samples from 5-year-old children with and without dental caries. The results show that there were no significant differences in microbial abundance and diversity between the high caries and no caries groups. However, the relative abundances of certain bacterial taxa differed between the two groups. The findings of this study provide insights into the microbiological etiology of dental caries in young children and could potentially lead to new methods for prevention and treatment.

Summary: This paper discusses the biochemical interactions between teeth and the oral environment during the caries process, including physico-chemical reactions, theoretical basis for prevention and treatment, 'demineralization' and 'remineralization', the role of microbiota, as well as the mechanisms of carious lesion development, healing, and repair.

Summary: This review highlights delayed dental maturity, orthodontic disturbances, and abnormal craniofacial morphology in growth hormone deficient children. Further studies and targeted dental care are essential for this vulnerable group to address various oral health problems.

Summary: The study compared saliva microbiota profiles in children with and without caries, revealing minor differences in microbiota between the two groups. Potential biomarkers of caries were sugar metabolisers Paludibacter and Labrenzia, which may contribute to dental caries progression through salivary acidification. Further studies are needed to explore the clinical relevance of these findings.

Summary: This study found that children and young people with neurological impairment and oropharyngeal dysphagia who had gastrostomy had worse oral hygiene compared to those without gastrostomy, and both groups harbored Streptococcus mutans.

Summary: Oral microbial dysbiosis is a major cause of oral infectious diseases, and researchers have developed antimicrobial small molecules that can inhibit the virulence of oral microbiota and restore microbial ecological balance, showing potential applications in the treatment of oral diseases.

Summary: Dental caries, the most common chronic disease in children, has negative effects on their health, development, and well-being. Early preventive interventions are crucial, but there is still a lack of accurate caries risk predictors for infants before caries onset.

Summary: Oral diseases are common worldwide, and tooth decay is influenced by oral microbiota composition. Probiotics, which adjust intestinal microbiota and reduce pathogenic bacteria, have potential health benefits for oral health. This review investigates the role of different strains of probiotics in preventing tooth decay and explores postbiotics derived from probiotics as novel compounds.

Summary: Salivary markers of oxidative stress are associated with clinical disease indices such as gingival bleeding and dental caries. The total antioxidant capacity (TAC) increased in patients with more gingival bleeding and decreased in adolescents with caries. Antioxidants could potentially be used as a preventive and therapeutic measure against oral diseases in the future.

Summary: There are significant differences in the oral microbiome between children with Down syndrome and non-Down syndrome children, suggesting that children with Down syndrome may have a unique oral microbiome that could impact the development of dental diseases.
