Understanding the Oral Microbiome: A Computational Approach to Preventing "Gum"​

🦷 What Is the Oral Microbiome?

The oral microbiome refers to the complex community of microorganisms—bacteria, viruses, fungi, and archaea—that live in the mouth. A healthy microbiome maintains balance, aiding in digestion, immune regulation, and protection against pathogens. However, when this balance is disturbed, it can trigger periodontal disorders like gingivitis and periodontitis.
