Today, research aimed at studying the human microbiome is becoming increasingly relevant. This is due to the proven fact that the role of microorganisms is essential in maintaining and preserving health and longevity. The oral microbiome is considered one of the best-studied biotopes, comprising over 600 different microorganism taxa at the species level. However, only 54% have been fully identified, 14% are culturable in laboratory conditions, and about 32% are known exclusively as uncultivated phylotypes. Furthermore, oral microorganisms colonize the hard surfaces of the teeth and the soft tissues of the mucous membrane, forming specific associations – oral biofilm. In view of this, a review of current literature data concerning the composition of the oral microbiome and its influence on the development of pathological conditions was performed.
