Abstract

The oral microbiome is the second largest microbial ecosystem after the gut microbiome, containing more than 700 species of microorganisms. The oral cavity provides a humid and warm environment in which microbes\thrive. Although the oral cavity is one of the major microbial habitats, the role of oral microbiota in the human health has been underemphasized. The oral microbiome is closely associated with oral diseases, including dental caries and periodontitis. Furthermore, there is a large body of evidence to show that the oral microbiota can regulate systemic pathogenesis in a similar way to the gut microbiome. Here, we will review the role of the oral microbiome in the human health and disease, particularly in two aspects: oral and systemic implications.
