The microbial aetiology for periodontitis has been widely studied and deciphered for more than a century. The evolving and changing concepts about periodontal microbiology can be attributed to continuously developing laboratory techniques. The current sequencing platforms have not only expanded the catalog of periodontal pathogens but have also facilitated the understanding of functional interactions of the ecological framework. However, the translation of this new knowledge to advance periodontal therapeutics is minimal. We contend that novel clinical interventions directed beyond conventional therapies need to be emphasized. A clear understanding of the structural and functional dynamics of subgingival microbiota is a pre-requisite for developing any microbiome-based interventions for applications in periodontal health care. In this review, we discuss the 16 s-rRNA gene sequencing-based knowledge of the subgingival microbial community structure, its interactions and functions, and our perspective on the potential to engineer it for periodontal therapeutics. Harnessing this next-generation sequencing-based knowledge, microbiome modulation therapies are poised to change microbiome therapeutics’ face.
