Oral bacteriome analysis using metagenomic sequencing in elderly individuals with diabetes mellitus for the prediction and control of dental caries.
PhD thesis, Universiti Teknologi MARA (Kampus Sg. Buloh).
Abstract
Dental caries among the elderly is on the rise due to increased life expectancy and the trend of retaining natural teeth longer. The oral cavity harbours a diverse microbial community even in health, but systemic conditions such as diabetes mellitus (DM) can disrupt this balance, inducing dysbiosis and promoting dental caries.
