See moreOral Microbiomics: From Biofilm Ecology to Precision Oral Health-Associate Professor Jaya Seneviratne Oral microbiomics is a broad and rapidly evolving field that has grown from the foundations of classical oral microbiology into the era of microbiome science. Moving beyond the traditional focus on individual pathogens, oral microbiomics examines complex microbial communities, their ecological interactions, and dynamic relationships with the host. This presentation will explore how knowledge from classical oral microbiology, biofilm biology, and modern OMICS driven microbiome research can be integrated to develop new ecological modulation therapies. The field is now converging on precision oral health, where prevention, diagnosis, and treatment are tailored to each individual's microbial, immunological, and clinical profile. The key questions are, where do we stand today in oral microbiomics, and how do we progress towards precision oral health?
