The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Composition of the adult digestive tract bacterial microbiome based on seven mouth surfaces, tonsils, throat and stool samples (2012, result): “The oral microbiome as revealed in this investigation was generally consistent with earlier studies [11,13,14,22,66,67].”
Distinct and complex bacterial profiles in human periodontitis and health revealed by 16S pyrosequencing (2011, background): “Some recent sequencing efforts have estimated much higher numbers of species and a higher fraction of uncharacterized species (Keijser et al., 2008; Pushalkar et al., 2011).”
Bacterial diversity in the oral cavity of ten healthy individuals (2010, background): “Two recent 16S rRNA gene-tag pyrosequencing-based studies have suggested that there are B250–300 species-level phylotypes in the mouth of any given individual, and that they segregate based on mucosal versus dental surfaces (Keijser et al., 2008; Zaura et al., 2009).”
Environmental and Gut Bacteroidetes: The Food Connection (2011, background): “Bacteroidetes have also been found in the normal microbiota of the oral cavity, either in the saliva or dental plaque (Keijser et al., 2008; Nasidze et al., 2009a,b).”
Defining the healthy "core microbiome" of oral microbial communities (2009, background): “Since saliva is easily and noninvasively accessible it is a popular sample in oral epidemiology and microbiome diversity [4,16] studies.”
