Periodontal microbial ecology.
TL;DR: This manuscript is a brief primer on microbial ecology, because, although the importance of microbial ecology in periodontal diseases is widely recognized, most of us do not know precisely what the term means.

Abstract: The authors have taken the liberty of presenting this manuscript in two parts. The first is a brief primer on microbial ecology, because, although the importance of microbial ecology in periodontal diseases is widely recognized, most of us do not know precisely what is meant by the term. The second section is a rather extensive overview of current studies of oral microbial ecology based almost entirely on recent in vivo studies.

Periodontitis: from microbial immune subversion to systemic inflammation
TL;DR: The mechanisms of microbial immune subversion that tip the balance from homeostasis to disease in oral or extra-oral sites are discussed.
The oral microbiota: dynamic communities and host interactions.
TL;DR: Current knowledge and emerging mechanisms governing oral polymicrobial synergy and dysbiosis that have both enhanced the understanding of pathogenic mechanisms and aided the design of innovative therapeutic approaches for oral diseases are discussed.
So depression is an inflammatory disease, but where does the inflammation come from?

TL;DR: The identification of known sources of inflammation provides support for inflammation as a mediating pathway to both risk and neuroprogression in depression.
The role of bacterial biofilms in chronic infections
TL;DR: Evidence is presented to support a view that the biofilm lifestyle dominates chronic bacterial infections, where bacterial aggregation is the default mode, and that subsequent biofilm development progresses by adaptation to nutritional and environmental conditions.

The subgingival microbiome in health and periodontitis and its relationship with community biomass and inflammation
Loreto Abusleme,Amanda K. Dupuy,Nicolas Dutzan,Nora Silva,Joseph A. Burleson,Linda D. Strausbaugh,Jorge Gamonal,Patricia I. Diaz +7 more
TL;DR: This study provides a global-scale framework for the ecological events in subgingival communities that underline the development of periodontitis and elucidate the relationship between inflammation and the subgesival microbiome.

Coaggregation: specific adherence among human oral plaque bacteria.
TL;DR: Coaggregation offers an explanation for the temporally related accretion of dental plaque and bacterial recognition of mucosal surfaces and the high degree of specificity of coaggregation in the oral bacterial population is indicated.

The effects of different foods and concentrations of citric acid on the flow rate of whole saliva in man.
S. Watanabe,Colin Dawes +1 more
TL;DR: Normal foods elicit a salivary flow rate which is a high fraction of the maximum secretory rate achieved in response to acid, and the water content of the food bolus varied over a wide range.

TL;DR: In conclusion, past periodontal destruction, smoking habits, Bacteroides forsythus, Prevotella intermedia, and Porphyromonas gingivalis are prognostic factors for furtherperiodontal breakdown.

TL;DR: The "checkerboard" Dna-Dna hybridization technology was used to study the epidemiology of 18 microbial species associated with various states of periodontal health and disease in a sample of 148 Chinese subjects never exposed to systematic dental therapeutic intervention.

Microbiological parameters associated with IL‐1 gene polymorphisms in periodontitis patients
TL;DR: The data suggest that genotype positive subjects more frequently had higher levels of "red" and "orange" complex species that are known to be strongly associated with measures of periodontal inflammation.
