Abstract
Background The caries-preventive effect of topical fluoride application has been corroborated by a number of clinical studies. However, the effect of fluoride on oral microecology remains unclear. Objective To monitor the effect of fluoride on dental plaque microecology and demineralization/remineralization balance of enamel initial caries. Methods Three-year-old children were enrolled and treated with fluoride at baseline and 6 months. International Caries Detection and Assessment System II indices of 52 subjects were measured at baseline, 3, 6, and 12 months. Supragingival plaque samples of 12 subjects were collected at baseline, 3 and 14 days for 16S rRNA sequencing. Results Changes in microbial community structure were observed at 3 days after fluoridation. Significant changes in the relative abundance of microorganisms were observed after fluoride application, especially Capnocytophaga, unidentified Prevotellaceae and Rothia. Functional prediction revealed that cell movement, carbohydrate and energy metabolism were affected significantly after fluoride application. Fluoride significantly inhibited enamel demineralization and promoted remineralization of early demineralized caries enamel at 3 months. Conclusion Fluoride application significantly inhibited the progression of enamel initial caries and reversed the demineralization process, possibly by disturbing dental plaque microecology and modulating the physicochemical action of demineralization/remineralization. This deepened our understanding of caries-preventive effects and mechanisms of fluoride.

Pathogens 2022; 11:pathogens11050578. [PMID: 35631099 PMCID: PMC9147272 DOI: 10.3390/pathogens11050578] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2022] [Revised: 05/04/2022] [Accepted: 05/11/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
The objective of this study was to develop novel modified giomers by incorporating the antibacterial quaternary ammonium monomers (QAMs), dimethylaminododecyl methacrylate (DMADDM) or dimethylaminohexadecyl methacrylate (DMAHDM) into a commercial giomer. The material performances including mechanical properties, surface characteristics, color data, cytotoxicity and fluoride release of the novel giomers were evaluated. Antibacterial activity against severe early childhood caries (S-ECC) saliva-derived biofilms was assessed by lactic acid production measurement, MTT assay, biofilm staining and 16S rRNA sequencing. A rat model was developed and the anti-caries effect was investigated by micro-CT scanning and modified Keyes’ scoring. The results showed that the material properties of the QAMs groups were comparable to those of the control group. The novel giomers significantly inhibited lactic acid production and biofilm viability of S-ECC saliva-derived biofilms. Furthermore, caries-related genera such as Streptococcus and Lactobacillus reduced in QAMs groups, which showed their potential to change the microbial compositions. In the rat model, lesion depth, mineral loss and scoring of the QAMs groups were significantly reduced, without side effects on oral tissues. In conclusion, the novel giomers incorporated with antibacterial QAMs could inhibit the cariogenic biofilms and help prevent secondary caries, with great potential for future application in restorative treatment.

Anti-bacterial and anti-microbial aging effects of resin-based sealant modified by quaternary ammonium monomers. J Dent 2021; 112:103767.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Pit and fissure sealant is used in the prevention of dental caries. However, commercial pit and fissure sealant lacks persistent antibacterial properties. Dimethylaminododecyl methacrylate (DMADDM) was added to pit and fissure sealants to give it sustainable antibacterial properties and anti-microbial aging properties. METHODS Resin-based sealant was used as a control. Novel sealants were made with DMADDM. Atomic force microscope observation, curing depth, cytotoxicity, lactic acid measurement, hardness and microleakage were measured. Saliva-derived biofilms were grown on sealants. Biofilm metabolic activity, lactic acid production and biomass accumulation were measured. RESULTS Incorporating DMADDM did not increase the cytotoxicity or change the physical properties when the mass fraction of the DMADDM was 2.5-10%. The modification decreased the amount of bacterial biofilm, metabolic activity, lactic acid production and exopolysaccharide (EPS) in the saliva biofilms. It also provided anti-microbial aging properties. CONCLUSION The incorporation of DMADDM improved the antibacterial and anti-microbial aging effects of the material. It demonstrated a sustained antibacterial effect. The antibacterial and anti-microbial aging modification might be a potential choice for future clinical applications to inhibit dental caries, especially for children at high caries risk. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE The antibacterial and anti-microbial aging modification might be a potential choice for future clinical applications to prevent dental caries, especially for individuals at high caries risk.

Abstract
Background Severe early childhood caries (S-ECC) is mainly caused by the interaction of microbiota and environmental factors. However, the metabolic profiles of S-ECC microbial communities and the community-level microbial responses to carbohydrates and amino acids are poorly understood. Methods We collected supragingival plaques from 15 caries-free (CF) and 14 S-ECC children. Cultivation on Biolog AN microplates together with next-generation sequencing was used to analyze sole carbon source utilization patterns and microbial responses to sucrose, lactose and phenylalanine. Results S-ECC plaques had greater overall metabolic activity than those of CF ones. Comparing with CF, S-ECC plaques utilized more sucrose and lactose but less phenylalanine and then had greater response to carbohydrates. A remarkable increase of non-mutans Streptococci was observed in sucrose and lactose consumption. Lactose led to less differently distributed taxa than sucrose in both CF and S-ECC groups. Sucrose made the originally different S-ECC and CF communities eventually became similar to each other, but they remained dissimilar in lactose. Conclusion S-ECC plaques had more active interaction with cariogenic carbohydrates like sucrose and lactose than healthy plaques. We supported lactose has less cariogenicity compared with sucrose from microbial community structural aspect. Phenylalanine may have a potentially inhibitory effect on caries development.

Abstract
Increasing lines of evidence indicate that while microbial profile might vary, community-level metabolic potential is often more stably correlated with healthy and diseased states. Here, we investigated the community-level metabolic diversity of dental plaque microbiota from caries-free (CF) and caries-affected (CA) children by measuring their sole carbon source utilization using a Biolog assay. The dietary habits of 32 CF and 31 CA children were recorded by a questionnaire. Supragingival plaque samples were collected and inoculated into Biolog AN Microplates to assess the metabolism of sole carbon sources by plaque bacteria. The results revealed significant differences in dietary habits between CF and CA children. Meanwhile, Biolog assay showed consistently higher, albeit not statistically significant, overall metabolic activity as measured by average well color development (AWCD) value in the plaque microbiota from CA group than CF group. Most importantly, the CA group had more than twice as many core-positive carbon sources (defined as being utilized by >90% of plaque microbiota from subjects within the group) as that of the CF group (31 vs. 14), including CA group-specific, cariogenic core-positive carbon sources such as sucrose, glucose and raffinose. Furthermore, CF and CA groups could be well distinguished by cluster and principle component analyses based on the types of sole carbon sources significantly differentially utilized by the two groups. Our results indicate that plaque communities associated with caries state are more metabolically versatile than those associated with healthy state, which could contribute to differential clinical caries states. Meanwhile, Biolog could be an effective tool in revealing the community-level physiological profiles of microbiota associated with different caries states.
