Recent advances in studies of polymicrobial interactions in oral biofilms (2013)
Journal Article
James, C. (2013). Recent advances in studies of polymicrobial interactions in oral biofilms. Current Oral Health Reports, 1(1), 59-69. https://doi.org/10.1007/s40496-013-0006-3

The oral cavity supports a complex and finely balanced consortium of microbial species, many of which cooperate within structured biofilms. These communities develop through multitudinous synergistic and antagonistic interspecies relationships. Chang...
