Summary

The purpose of the present investigation is to record and compare bacterial compositions in supragingival plaque samples and saliva samples in subjects discontinuing regular oral hygiene for 10 days. The hypothesis is that the composition of the salivary microbiota might reflect local bacterial alterations in relation to discontinuation of oral hygiene.
