Today there is no unified personalized approach to the selection of construction materials in orthopedic dentistry, hence it is necessary to introduce and further study the effect of construction materials on the microbiota of the oral cavity. In particular, principles of microbial adhesion to various construction materials, development of biofilm and bacterial colonization of concrete construction materials need to be analysed. The article provides a review of literature devoted to the description of the adhesive properties of oral microbiota to orthopedic materials from the groups of polymers, metals and ceramic constructions as well as the development of the negative impact of the construction material on the microbiota of a particular group of teeth and the general condition of the microflora of the oral cavity, increase of the risks of dental plaque formation, biofilms formation and a shift of microflora towards the predominance of cariogenic one.
