Antimicrobial resistance genes in the oral microbiome
The analysis of the oral resistome from these 15 studies identified three ARGs present in all sites of the oral cavity, suggesting the presence of a core resistome. NGS studies provided greater insights compared to PCR studies; however, the overall research base is limited. Further comprehensive studies are necessary to fully map the oral resistome.
