Thanks for the links. I appreciate them. Dr. Miklossy points out in her paper that these oral spirochetes are capable of triggering the human immune response for their OWN defense. After reading the first paper on inflammation, and it’s involvement, I wonder if that is not part of the AD modality?
Yes, it is a strong possibility
Oral spirochetes implicated in dental diseases are widespread in normal human subjects and carry extremely diverse integron gene cassettes.
