Multi‐Omics Signatures of Periodontitis and Periodontal Therapy on the Oral and Gut Microbiome

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
This multi‐omics study integrates shotgun metagenomics and NMR metabolomics to reveal coordinated microbial and metabolic signatures of periodontitis across the oral–gut axis. Non‐surgical periodontal therapy partially restored ecological and functional balance, supporting oral health as a modifiable driver of systemic microbial homeostasis.

Defense Systems and Prophage Detection in Streptococcus mutans Strains

Molecular Oral Microbiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although the species is extensively studied, limited data are available on antiphage defense systems (APDSs) in Streptococcus mutans. The present study aimed to explore the diversity and the occurrence of APDSs and to search for prophages in the genomes of clinical isolates of S. mutans using bioinformatics tools.

Emerging locally delivered antimicrobial and immunomodulatory approaches for the prevention/treatment of peri‐implant diseases

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Peri‐implant diseases are dysbiosis‐mediated inflammatory disorders that occur in susceptible hosts. Antimicrobials and immunomodulatory agents therefore might be pertinent as adjunctive measures in the treatment of such disorders. The aim of this narrative review was to examine the existing evidence and assess the effectiveness of emerging ...

Competence in Streptococcus pneumoniae and Close Commensal Relatives: Mechanisms and Implications

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2019
The mitis group of streptococci comprises species that are common colonizers of the naso-oral-pharyngeal tract of humans. Streptococcus pneumoniae and Streptococcus mitis are close relatives and share ~60–80% of orthologous genes, but still present ...

Experimental Bacterial Endocarditis Due to Streptococcus Mitis [PDF]

Circulation, 1955
Pathologic and bacteriologic studies were carried out in all 24 dogs subjected to arteriovenous anastomoses and bacteremia. The single etiologic agent, Streptococcus mitis , was stained and cultured from 10 of the 11 hearts with active endocarditis (one animal had a healed tricuspid valvulitis) and from 16 of 17 ...

Exhaled Carbon Monoxide Indicates Persistent Subgingival Dysbiosis After Periodontal Therapy

Journal of Clinical Periodontology, Volume 53, Issue 2, Page 170-178, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim To investigate whether exhaled carbon monoxide (CO) is dose‐dependently associated with subgingival polymicrobial clusters before and after non‐surgical periodontal therapy. Material and Methods We followed 163 adults with periodontitis, measuring CO before and at 2, 14 and 26 months after therapy.
