Different subgingival microbiota profiles were identified-a less diverse microbiota was found in patients infected with HIV-1, in contrast to a more diverse microbiota in controls. NSPD caused changes in the microbiota of both groups, with a greater impact on the HIV group, leading to a decrease in alpha diversity, and produced a positive impact on the serological immune markers in patients infected with HIV-1. Control of periodontitis should be included as part of an oral primary care, providing the oral health benefits and better control of HIV-1 infection.
