Perfil bacteriano del biofilm dental supragingival en niños con dentición temporal y mixta temprana utilizando la técnica de secuenciación de próxima generación (HOMINGS) / Bacterial profile of the supragingival dental biofilm in children with deciduous and early mixed dentition using next generation sequencing (HOMINGS) technique

OBJETIVO: Describir el perfil bacteriano del biofilm supragingival de niños con dentición temporal (NDT) y dentición mixta temprana (NDMT), con la técnica de secuenciación de próxima generación HOMINGS. MÉTODO: Se realizó un estudio descriptivo comparativo con 30 niños de 5 a 7 años de edad sistémicamente sanos de escuelas públicas de Cartagena (Colombia). Todos los participantes estaban libres de caries, según los criterios del Sistema Internacional de Detección y Evaluación de Caries (ICDAS II) y sin experiencia de caries según el índice de dientes cariados, perdidos y obturados (DCPO). Se recolectaron muestras de biofilm supragingival. Se extrajo el ADN bacteriano y se usó para su análisis mediante HOMINGS (identificación de microorganismos orales humanos utilizando secuenciación de próxima generación) basado en la secuenciación de la región V3-V4 del gen 16S rRNA con la plataforma Illumina MiSeq. RESULTADOS: Se identificaron 360 especies específicas y 65 géneros específicos de las sondas: Streptococcus, Actinomyces, Veillonella y Fusobacterium (29,2% del total de ADN bacteriano presente), mientras que en el grupo de dentición mixta temprana se encontraban Streptococcus, Leptotrichia, TM7 y Porphyromonas (24,5% del ADN bacteriano presente). Las especies bacterianas con mayor abundancia relativa en el microbioma oral de biofilm de NDT fueron Streptococcus sanguinis, Rothia aeria, Gemella haemolysans, mientras que en NDMT fueron S. sanguinis, Leptotrichia sp. HOT-417, Leptotrichia sp. HOT-498. El índice de diversidad de Shannon fue 2,77 (DE = 0,26) para NDT y 3,01 (DE = 0,39) para NDMT (p = 0,06). CONCLUSIONES: El análisis del perfil bacteriano del biofilm dental supragingival en niños con NDMT mediante HOMINGS mostró baja diversidad microbiológica tanto en presencia como en abundancia relativa a nivel de género y de especies bacterianas

OBJECTIVE: Tdescribe the bacterial profile of the supragingival biofilm of children with temporary dentition (CTD) and early mixed dentition (CEMD), with the next-generation sequencing (HOMINGS) technique. METHOD: A comparative descriptive study was carried out with 30 systemically healthy children aged between 5 and 7 years old from public schools in Cartagena-Colombia. All participants were caries-free applying the criteria of the International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS II) and had no caries experience according to the Decayed, Missing and Filled Teeth (DMFT) index. Supragingival biofilm samples were collected. Bacterial DNA was extracted and used for analysis using HOMINGS (Human Oral Microbe Identification using Next-Generation Sequencing) based on the sequencing of the V3-V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene using the Illumina MiSeq platform (V3-V4 primers). RESULTS: A total of 360 species-specific and 65 genus-specific probes were identified. The bacterial genus most predominant in CTD were Streptococcus, Actinomyces, Veillonella and Fusobacterium (29.2% of all bacterial DNA present), while in CEMD the most predominant were Streptococcus, Leptotrichia, TM7 and Porphyromonas (24.5% of all bacterial DNA present). The bacterial species with the highest relative abundance in the oral biofilm microbiome from CTD were Streptococcus sanguinis, Rothia aeria, Gemella haemolysans, while in CEMD they were S. sanguinis, Leptotrichia spp. HOT-417 and Leptotrichia spp. HOT-498. The Shannon diversity index was 2.77 (SD = 0.26) for CTD and 3.01 (SD = 0.39) for CEMD (P = 0.06). CONCLUSIONS: The analysis of the bacterial profile of the supragingival dental biofilm in children with DMFT, by means of HOMINGS showed low microbiological diversity both in presence and in relative abundance in terms of genus as well as bacterial species
