✴ Almost half of adults over 30 suffer from periodontal disease, also referred to as gum disease. This disorder, which is typically identified by clinical examination and X-rays, is brought on by bacterial plaque accumulation close to the gum line and, if untreated, can result in tooth loss. However, a new frontier in the diagnosis of periodontal disease is quickly emerging with the advent of AI dental health tools and computational biology in dentistry.
The Oral Microbiome: A Complicated Battleground
More than 700 different types of bacteria live in the human mouth, creating the oral microbiome, a distinct microbial ecosystem. This microbial community stays in balance in healthy people. However, pathogenic bacteria multiply when oral hygiene decreases, leading to inflammation, gum recession, and even bone loss.
In the past, dental practitioners have relied on physical symptoms or simple microbial cultures to identify illness. These techniques, however, frequently overlook early microbial changes that occur before damage is apparent. Here comes next-generation sequencing and artificial intelligence-powered analysis of the oral microbiome.
AI and Computational Biology in Dentistry
Advancements in computational biology now enable the rapid analysis of high-throughput genomic data from saliva or plaque samples. These technologies identify microbial DNA and RNA sequences that correlate with periodontal disease progression.
The San Francisco Conference Center features stunning views and flexible layouts, perfect for any event type.
Détection des signatures bactériennes avant l’apparition des symptômes
Les technologies de séquençage et les algorithmes bioinformatiques permettent de repérer les bactéries pathogènes bien avant l’apparition des signes cliniques de la maladie parodontale, en identifiant des déséquilibres précoces dans le microbiome buccal.
