The impact of interactions between heavy metals and smoking exposures on the formation of oral microbial communities
Chronic exposure to heavy metals and smoking disrupts the normal bacterial communities in the oral mucosa of residents of contaminated areas. This exposure reduces the complexity and stability of microbial networks and increases the risk of various diseases reduces the complexity and stability.
