You may not want to think about it this way, but your mouth is really just one giant, wet cave for microbes. From the perspective of bacteria, your mouth is not a tool. It is a home. It is a place that provides shelter and food, but it is also a place that can pose many threats. And the interplay between our mouths and the microbes that take up residence within them ends up, inevitably, affecting our own health.
