    Summary

    Mothers can transmit periodontal pathogens to their children, establishing oral microbiota early in life. Early preventive dental care is crucial for children to avoid aggressive pathogen acquisition.

    Area of Science:

    • Oral microbiology
    • Pediatric dentistry
    • Periodontology

    Background:

    • Periodontal diseases are a primary cause of adult tooth loss.
    • The oral microbiota, linked to these diseases, is established during childhood.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the presence of periodontal pathogens in infants.
    • To correlate infant oral pathogens with maternal oral microbiota.
    • To assess pathogen occurrence at 6, 12, 18, and 24 months of age.

    Main Methods:

    • Longitudinal study design.
    • Saliva and oral biofilm samples collected from mothers and children using paper points.
    • Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) quantification of pathogens.
    • Questionnaires on hygiene and dietary habits.

    Main Results:

    • A significant positive correlation in pathogen occurrence was observed between mothers and children across all study periods.
    • No correlation was found between hygiene/dietary habits and the presence of periodontal pathogens.

    Conclusions:

    • Maternal transmission plays a role in early acquisition of periodontal pathogens.
    • Implementing early preventive and biofilm control programs for children is recommended to mitigate risks.
