Intra‐oral single‐site comparisons of periodontal and peri‐implant microbiota in health and disease

Abstract

Species (OTU) composition of the periodontal and peri-implant microbiota varied widely between subjects. The inter-subject variations in subgingival/submucosal microbiome composition outweighed differences observed between implant vs. tooth sites, or between diseased vs. healthy (unaffected) peri-implant/periodontal sites.
