Exploring the influence of psychological factors on the comorbidity of dental caries and obesity in adolescents from the perspective of the oral-gut-brain axis
The study highlights the roles of the oral-gut and oral-brain axes in the comorbidity of dental caries and obesity among adolescents. The findings suggest that oral and gut microbiota play crucial roles in disease progression, and their imbalances may affect mental health through the oral-gut-brain axis. The results provide a theoretical foundation for developing integrated intervention strategies targeting both oral and systemic health.
