Abstract : Nutrigenetics is the study of the relationships among genes,diet and health outcomes. This “genomic era” has allowed for Nutrigenetics based studies to be conducted, aiming to reveal whether there are interactions between the food intake and our genetic make-up. These interactions between genotype and diet are significant in determining the risk of most of the complex diseases; hence there is high probability of these interactions being important in determining oral disease risk. A large number of data provide proof of principle and highlight the importance of understanding these interactions, thereby illustrating the potential impact of dietary modifications on oral health which is the highlight of this particular review.
