Time-resolved changes in the beta diversity of supragingival plaque microbiome comparing subjects with moderate gingivitis randomized to different mouthrinse treatment groups against reference cohorts with naturally healthy oral cavities at baseline. Sample ordination was performed with the weighted UniFrac distance computed at the species taxonomic level, using CMUs for bacterial abundance, and graphed in a two-dimensional principal coordinate plot.
