Nutrigenomic Aspects Over Dental Health: A Review

People living in different cultures have different genetic compositions, which affects the uptake and breakdown of nutrients. Investigators found that certain changes have resulted in the genomes due to the nutrient demand. Dental diseases like periodontitis are caused by the disparity between the oral microorganisms and the inflammatory condition of the individual. The disease development is affected by genetic and environmental factors, which can affect the immune system, thereby altering the connective tissue and bone support. Even periodontitis is seen mostly in adults, as well as in children and adolescents. The nutrigenomic method is the best choice for understanding the genomic relation with healthy or diseased conditions in medical and dental settings to create a personalized nutrition plan. The paper emphasizes nutritional requirements for dental conditions.
