Mechanisms of Dysbiosis and Rebiosis of the Periodontal Microbiome
Horizontal and vertical transfer of oral microbial dysbiosis and periodontal disease
Work on the transmission of dysbiotic oral microbial communities in mice and their influence on the development of disease in recipient animals. The study demonstrates an unexpected resilience in a dysbiotic oral microbiome which is stable to both horizontal and vertical transfer and also leads to the generation of the disease phenotype
