Alpha and beta-diversity analysis of HOM in collected samples. a Alpha-diversity values in each enrolled study participant. b Alpha-diversity values in all samples grouped for the specific sampling site. c Alpha-diversity values in sub-groups of study participants, subdivided for gender (left panel) (M, male; F, female), use of an interproximal device (tooth floss or none), and use of manual or powered toothbrush. Median line, interquartile range, and min-max values for each box-plot are shown. The p value as detected by Student’s t test is also shown in panel c. d Beta-diversity, as detected by Weighted Unifrac analysis, in the different site-specific samples from all the study participants. Multidimensional scaling (MDS) analysis of Weighted Unifrac similarity index is shown
