College of Dentistry, University of Babylon discussed a master dissertation on the immunological and microbial aspects of orthodontic patients by the postgraduate student, Mr. Asaad Karim Hussein Al-Nafei.

The dissertation aimed at evaluating the microbial and immune response of the oral cavity of patients with fixed orthodontics.

The dissertation demonstrated collecting samples taken from orthodontic patients, relying on bacteriological and biochemical tests and conducting a serial interactive examination by using antibiotics amoxicillin, tetracycline and metronidazole, which were the most resistant to the isolated bacterial apostates, while ciprofloxacin and levofloxacin were more sensitive.

The dissertation confirmed that the oral cavity in orthodontic patients is a good environment for bacterial colonization, especially Streptococcus Mutans, which is determined by the polymerase chain reaction technique.
