^*The mean of canonical functions value did not change significantly (P>0.05).

Microbes: F. n. – F. nucleatum; E.c. – E. corrodens; P.g. – P. gingivalis; P.i. – P. intermedia; C.s. – Capnocytophaga species; A.a. – A. actinomycetemcomitans; S.i. – S. intermedius. Hb A1c – the mean glycosylated hemoglobin.
