The oral microbiota, comprising a diverse array of microorganisms inhabiting the oral cavity, plays a crucial role in maintaining oral and systemic health. This review paper provides a comprehensive analysis of the intricate relationship between oral microbiota and human health, highlighting its pivotal role in the prevention and development of various diseases. Key topics covered include the composition and dynamics of oral microbiota, its interactions with the host immune system and its implications in the pathogenesis of oral diseases such as dental caries, periodontal diseases and oral cancer. Furthermore, the systemic effects of oral microbiota on conditions such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes and respiratory infections are discussed. Additionally, emerging research on the therapeutic potential of modulating oral microbiota through probiotics, prebiotics and other interventions is reviewed. This paper underscores the significance of understanding and maintaining oral microbial balance for health and disease prevention.
