Abstract
and other microorganisms may be implicated in non-oral health outcomes such as heart disease, stroke[4], or complications with pregnancy [5]. Microbiome communities occur naturally throughout nature and the body from thin wet spaces between layers of rock, to our hair, skin, eyes, entire digestive tract, lungs and urogenital system. The number of these organisms in these communities in and on our bodies is believed to be 10x greater than our own human cells and the genetic information they possess being 100x greater. This new understanding of the essential synergistic and symbiotic relationship that exists between man and microbe has been the focus of the Human Microbiome Project supported by the National Institute of Health. It has also redefined our “humanity” to be that of a microbiome/ human “superorganism” [6].
