Characteristics of the salivary microbiota in cheilitis granulomatosa.

CONCLUSIONS: The composition and structure of bacterial communities in CG patients were different from HC. Most of the genera observed in CG patients were associated with periodontitis and pulp infection. These findings might be helpful in understanding the etiology of CG. Further study will be needed to confirm these findings and explore the underlying pathological mechanism. PMID: 31655830 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
