Abstract
in English, Chinese

Organ transplantation is an effective treatment for end-stage organ diseases. However, organ transplant recipients are susceptible to a wide variety of oral diseases, including gingival enlargement, periodontitis, oral mucosal diseases, oral malignant tumors, and dental caries. Oral microbiota may have played an important role in the organ transplant patients' increased susceptibility to oral diseases and is associated with adverse events after organ transplantation, which is gradually gaining more attention among scholars. We, herein, reviewed the common oral diseases, including periodontal tissue diseases, oral mucosal diseases, oral malignant tumors, and dental caries in organ transplantation patients. Furthermore, we discussed the characteristic changes in the oral microbiota of organ transplantation patients and the influencing factors of these changes. In-depth study of oral microbiota of organ transplant patients provides a reference for the prevention and treatment of relevant diseases after organ transplantation and serves an important role in oral and systemic health management of organ transplant patients.

器官移植是治疗终末期器官疾病的有效方法。器官移植患者易患牙龈肥大、牙周炎、口腔黏膜病、口腔恶性肿瘤和龋病等多种口腔疾病。口腔微生物群可能在其中发挥了重要作用，并且与器官移植后的不良事件相关，逐渐受到学者的关注。本文对器官移植患者常见的口腔疾病（包括牙周组织疾病、口腔黏膜疾病、口腔恶性肿瘤和龋病）进行了阐述，并进一步论述了器官移植患者口腔微生物群的特征性改变及其影响因素，以期通过对器官移植患者口腔微生物群的深入研究，为器官移植后相关疾病的防治提供参考，在器官移植患者的口腔和全身健康管理中发挥重要作用。
