Abstract
The host-microbe relationship is pivotal for oral health as well as for peri-implant diseases. Peri-implant mucosa and commensal biofilm play important roles in the maintenance of host-microbe homeostasis, but little is known about how they interact. We have therefore investigated the early host-microbe interaction between commensal multispecies biofilm (Streptococcus oralis, Actinomyces naeslundii, Veillonella dispar, Porphyromonas gingivalis) and organotypic peri-implant mucosa using our three-dimensional model. After 24 hr, biofilms induced weak inflammatory reaction in the peri-implant mucosa by upregulation of five genes related to immune response and increased secretion of IL-6 and CCL20. Biofilm volume was reduced which might be explained by secretion of beta-Defensins-1, -2, and CCL20. The specific tissue reaction without intrinsic overreaction might contribute to intact mucosa. Thus, a relationship similar to homeostasis and oral health was established within the first 24 hr. In contrast, the mucosa was damaged and the bacterial distribution was altered after 48 hr. These were accompanied by an enhanced immune response with upregulation of additional inflammatory-related genes and increased cytokine secretion. Thus, the homeostasis-like relationship was disrupted. Such profound knowledge of the host-microbe interaction at the peri-implant site may provide the basis to improve strategies for prevention and therapy of peri-implant diseases.Funding Information
