The aim of this study is to prospectively determine the association of generalised Stage I & II (initial to moderate) with all-cause and cirrhosis-related mortality in patients with cirrhosis. We also plan to evaluate the oral microbiome and association of oral dysbiosis with complications of cirrhosis to assess if early treatment by dental interventions may improve nutrition and outcomes in cirrhosis. Lastly this prospective randomized controlled trial will provide insight into whether manipulation of the oral microbiome by dental procedures and oral hygiene training, antibiotics- local and systemic, use of probiotics etc can alter adverse outcomes, nutrition and health related quality of life in cirrhosis.
