The aim of this work was to characterize the temporal changes and diversity of peri-implant supra-mucosal and sub-mucosal microbiota during the process of the plaque maturation.
Dental implants are an essential treatment option for missing teeth. However, microbiome dysbiosis causes an implant-related disease: peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis. Here, we analyzed 25
we explore the peri-implant microbiome from an ecological perspective, integrating microbial diversity, taxonomic composition, functional profiles, and co-occurrence network structures across differen
