Niche-specific microbial community structure of subgingival plaque in periodontitis

Subgingival biofilms in periodontitis exhibit spatial heterogeneity, yet the organization of microbial communities across periodontal niches remains incompletely defined. Using paired sampling and 16S rRNA gene sequencing, we characterized non-attached and attached subgingival plaque from patients with periodontitis, together with non-attached plaque from periodontally healthy individuals.
