Reply to comment by [deleted] in How our microbiome is shaped by family, friends, and even neighbors. Study of the gut and mouth microbiomes of thousands of people from around the world raises the possibility that diseases linked to microbiome dysfunction, including cancer, diabetes, and obesity, could be partly transmissible. by MistWeaver80

Shouldn't the oral biome be the easiest one to replace? I'd imagine regular rinsing with something antibacterial + regular introduction of the desired biome should do the trick. This of course assumes that it's not the conditions (aka diet etc.) that are mainly responsible for the biome. But if that was the case, the paper in OP also wouldn't make much sense
