Numerous genes are implicated in the pathogenicity of oral microbes, such as those encoding glucosyltransferases, acetyltransferases, collagen-binding proteins, and fibronectin. These genes play significant roles in the initiation and progression of pathologies. In addition, specific genes involved in the interactions in the oral microbiome. Advances in genetic detection technologies are rapidly identifying more key genes, facilitating efficient screening for oral and systemic diseases.
