Discussion

Cross-sectional study reveals associations between microbial profiles, lifestyle, and periodontal health in patients.

Periodontal and faecal microbiomes differ significantly between health and disease states, indicating unique microbial signatures.
Discriminant analysis accurately classified 77% of individuals by their periodontal health status based on lifestyle and microbiome data.
Individuals with periodontitis have distinct dietary patterns and anthropometric measurements compared to healthy individuals.
The microbial diversity in faecal samples is lower in patients with gingivitis and periodontitis, suggesting potential links to disease progression.

Ribeiro et al. (2025) studied this question.
