Background Endodontic infections are a leading cause of oro-facial pain and tooth loss in
western countries, and may lead to severe life-threatening infections. These infections are …

In this study, microbial diversity of the root canal microbiota related to different endodontic
infections was investigated. In total, 45 patients with endo–perio lesions (8 patients), chronic …

Introduction The characterization of microbial communities infecting the endodontic system
in each clinical condition may help on the establishment of a correct prognosis and distinct …

Background Apical periodontitis (AP) is essentially an inflammatory disease of microbial
etiology primarily caused by infection of the pulp and root canal system. Variation of the …

Aim To determine the bacterial microbiota in root canals associated with persistent apical
periodontitis and their relationship with the clinical characteristics of patients using next …

The aim of this study was to explore the microbial communities of endodontic infections at
their apical portion by 16S rRNA Illumina sequencing and delineate the core microbiome of …

Introduction Chronic apical periodontitis (CAP) is a frequent condition that has a
considerable effect on a patient's quality of life. We aimed to reveal root canal microbial …

Next‐generation sequencing (NGS) has now been applied for a decade to characterize the
microbiota composition of infected dental root canals associated with apical periodontitis …

Background and objectives Acute apical abscesses are serious endodontic diseases
resulting from pulpal infection with opportunistic oral microorganisms. The objective of this …

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a highly aggressive cancer and the fourth leading
malignancy among males in Taiwan. Some pathogenic bacteria are associated with …
