What is it about?
Many organisms of the normal oral microbiota contribute to oral health, including key components of the oral microbiota such as streptococcai. The data analysis demonstrates a significant association between oral hygiene practices and the presence of antibiotic-resistant oral bacteria. This study has important implications for students suffering from oral diseases (such as dental caries) and practicing poor hygiene (such as not brushing and flossing regularly). It also has implications for global-scale impact, contributing to the growing concern of antibiotic resistance worldwide.
