The importance of CAVI is evidenced by its involvement in several malfunctions. Decreased secretion of salivary CAVI has been associated with loss of taste (hypogeusia) and smell (hyposmia) and ...
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) may increase the risk of caries and reduce salivary flow, pH, and buffering capacity. Dentists should prioritize the oral health of this population due to these heightened risks, ...
This study aimed to investigate the effects of chlorhexidine on healthy individuals' oral microbiomes and several saliva markers, such as pH, buffering capacity, and lactate and glucose levels. Two ...
The figure illustrates the major categories of genes that may influence susceptibility to dental caries, organized by their biological functions and pathways. These groups include: (1) Enamel ...
The first study looking at the effect of chlorhexidine mouthwash on the entire oral microbiome has found its use significantly increases the abundance of lactate-producing bacteria that lower saliva ...
