The advances in human oral biology and biotechnology

The oral cavity is a very specific and complicated structure. It plays the role of a speech apparatus but is also a gate and a preliminary processing plant for fuel nourishing the body. Analyzing the embryological development of the oral cavity, we can distinguish here the stages of growth, migration and fusion. This processes mainly involves the formation of branched arches that appear between the fourth and fifth weeks of fetal development. In recent years, interest in researching its various features has been still growing. After a thorough description and anatomical examination, researchers began to think about its other possibilities than just crushing, throwing, swallowing, bringing out the sounds and articulating words. It turns out that the whole range of its potential is not limited to just a few functions mentioned above. The following review article covers specific studies that have emerged most frequently over the past year. You will find here information about the microbiome of the oral cavity which plays an significant role in maintaining a proper physiological environment of the oral cavity, oral tumors and how the SCC or squamous cell carcinoma is histologically the most common and its treatment, even in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic, as well as the least discovered and still fascinating for scientists wound healing processes and unknown exosomes that can transport biological molecules in their original, intact and active form, including nucleic acids and proteins with their signaling pathways.
