Summary: This study compared the subgingival microbiota of patients with aggressive and chronic periodontitis to healthy individuals and explored their associations with host genetic variants. The results showed limited microbial differences between AgP and CP, challenging the notion that periodontitis is associated with increased subgingival microbial diversity compared with periodontal health. Different microbial abundances were observed between periodontitis patients and healthy individuals, but no associations between genetic variants and microbial findings were detected.

Summary: Saliva supplemented with serum can be used to grow subgingival microbiomes, with different conditions leading to varying richness and diversity of microbiomes from health and periodontitis sources. Microbial dysbiosis increases with time and serum concentration.

Summary: This study investigated the functional potential of subgingival microbial communities in domestic cats using shotgun metagenomic approach, comparing findings between periodontally healthy cats and cats with various periodontal diseases. The study revealed significant differences in the Respiration category among groups, indicating potential associations between microbial functional features and disease development.

Summary: The study revealed significant differences in the microbiota between patients with different periodontal conditions, with minor differences between stages of periodontitis. Additionally, there were notable variations in the microbiota between countries, with Colombia showing a higher count and variability of bacterial species.

Summary: The microbial etiology of periodontitis has been extensively studied, but the translation of this knowledge into therapeutic interventions is limited. This review emphasizes the need for innovative clinical interventions beyond conventional therapies and highlights the importance of understanding the structure and function of subgingival microbiota for developing microbiome-based interventions.

Summary: Developing a laboratory model of oral polymicrobial communities is crucial for in vitro studies on the transition from healthy to diseased oral plaque. The SHI medium is enriched and capable of supporting in vitro biofilms with similar diversity to healthy inocula, but modifications were made to create a medium that better represents a disease community. The modified subSHI-v1 medium with 0.1% sucrose and 10% FBS showed the highest diversity closest to the inoculum, maintaining a greater proportion of gram-negative species from the subgingival pocket, and therefore best represented the disease community.

Summary: The study aimed to investigate the subgingival microbiota in patients with Down syndrome, finding that those with periodontitis had higher levels of anaerobic bacteria, T. forsythia, and E. corrodens. Additionally, periodontitis patients were older, had lower rates of hypothyroidism, and higher levels of dental plaque.

Summary: HIV-1 infection is associated with periodontal disease, and non-surgical periodontal debridement (NSPD) affects the periodontal microbiota. This study found that HIV-1-infected individuals had lower microbiota diversity in the subgingival area compared to non-infected individuals. NSPD caused changes in the microbiota of both groups, with a greater impact on the HIV group, but also had a positive impact on immune markers in HIV-1-infected patients. Therefore, controlling periodontitis should be included in oral primary care to better control HIV-1 infection.

Summary: This study examined the relationship between levels of specialized pro-resolving lipid mediators (SPMs), SPM receptor gene expression, and subgingival microbiome in subjects with periodontitis compared to healthy controls. The results showed distinct profiles of lipid mediators, receptor genes, and subgingival microbiome in the different groups, with a strong correlation between lipid mediator profile and subgingival microbiome profile. Specific bacterial species and lipid mediators were found to be highly correlated in different periodontal conditions, suggesting that inflammation mediated by lipid mediators influences the microbial composition in periodontitis.

Summary: A subgingival microbial dysbiosis index (SMDI) was developed based on machine learning analysis of published periodontitis/health 16S microbiome data, demonstrating high diagnostic accuracy in identifying periodontitis patients/sites and assessing microbial response to treatment. The index can also be used as a quantitative tool in microbiome modulation studies.

Summary: This study analyzed the link between periodontal microbiota and obesity in humans. The results showed that obesity was associated with more severe gingival inflammation and a specific signature of subgingival microbiota. The study suggests the need for personalized preventive and therapeutic strategies for obese patients with periodontitis.

Summary: This study aimed to compare the composition of subgingival microbiome between patients with hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) and periodontitis. The results showed that the subgingival microbiome count was significantly higher in HS and periodontitis patients compared to controls. Additionally, there were similarities in the subgingival microbiome composition between HS and periodontitis patients.

Summary: The study identified dysbiotic signatures in aggressive periodontitis, with LAP showing more phenotype-specific indicators. Genetic capabilities and metabolic pathways play important roles in all three forms of periodontitis.

Summary: In this study, we identified suspected pathogens of chronic periodontitis by analyzing gingival crevicular fluid samples using a 16S rRNA metagenomic approach. We found a correlation between the changes in subgingival microbial structure and the occurrence and development of chronic periodontitis. This research provides useful information for the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of chronic periodontitis.

Summary: This study compared the subgingival biofilm composition in patients with type 2 diabetes and non-diabetic patients. It was found that patients with type 2 diabetes had a healthier subgingival microbial profile, closer to the normal state, with lower levels of pathogens and higher levels of host-friendly species.
