Abstract

Today new generation sequencing (NGS) technologies allow a more accurate analysis  of  the  bacterial  composition  of  a  microbiota.  Additionally,  they  have  contributed to the understanding of the role that prokaryotes play in endodontic pathogenesis. The sequencing of the hypervariable regions V3 and V4, a segment of the 16S rRNA gene, to evaluate diversity together with sequencing by synthesis (e.g. Illumina  MiSeq)  has  made  it  possible  to  elucidate  how  clinical  patterns  influence the structure of the bacterial community.
