Abstract |
: |
lthough there has been great
progress towards caries control
and prevention during the past
decade, dental caries still remains
one of the most wide spread of
human afflictions. Rampant caries
which differs from an ordinary
dental decay, has been the
subject of study by many investigators.
It is clear that it is not a
specific disease entity with a single
and specific cause, in stead, it ~ust
be considered to be the extreme end
of the range of caries activity. It is
usually associated with alteration in
the characteristic 0 f saliva(1 ,2) •
It has been recognized that there is a broad and complex relationship
between saliva and caries(3,4).
Many constituents of saliva, both
inorganic and organic, have a
potentially protective role in dental
caries, among these, are calcium
and phosphate ions which together
produce a saturated environment
for the teeth and help to resist
dissolution and encourage
remineralization. of teeth |
