Abstract
The idea for this book came about in relation to a symposium organized by the editor to present a research update that summarizes new findings related to the oral microbiota and the interaction between oral infections and general health. The symposium was held at the Annual Meeting of the IADR Continental European Division (CED) and Scandinavian Division (NOF) in Florence, Italy, in 2013. Consequently, the content of this book is largely based on contributions from European researchers within the field, but nonetheless the science presented in the various chapters embodies the global aspects of the topic and is therefore of significant relevance for researchers as well as health-care professionals throughout the whole world.
