Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It was suggested that fluoride mouth rinsing tends to affect salivary buffer capacity, S. mutans levels and ion concentrations in saliva. In different sites of teeth of dental plaque, there were significant site-specificities of relative DNA concentration of S. mutans. The dental plaque on lower-anterior-lingual (LAL) near the orifices of salivary glands was lowest level of DNA concentration of S. mutans. Since composition of dental plaque has a direct influence on saliva, it may be suspected to develop non-caries-inducing dental plaque.
