Dental biofilms could have a structure which, in sections, looks like tissue. The internal structure of the dental biofilm could be the result of interbacterial adhesion mechanisms in combination with nutritional conditions characterized by multiple nutrient starvation. The preservation of the structure of the biofilm over time may also involve the ability of the bacteria to withstand environmental stresses such as starvation, reactive oxygen products, and acid. The present review will describe, first, the regulation of the metabolic defense against environmental stresses and then focus mainly on the energy metabolism of dental biofilms.
牙菌斑可能具有一种结构，在切片中看起来像组织。牙菌斑的内部结构可能是细菌间粘附机制与以多种营养物质饥饿为特征的营养条件共同作用的结果。随着时间的推移，生物膜结构的保存可能还涉及细菌抵御环境压力（如饥饿、活性氧产物和酸）的能力。本综述将首先描述针对环境压力的代谢防御调节，然后主要关注牙菌斑的能量代谢。
