Title: The activity of dental caries in students of the Faculty of Dentistry, the study with the use of microbiological and biochemical tests (Dentocult SM). Author: Kiernicka M, Bachanek T, Klichowska-Palonka M. Journal: Ann Univ Mariae Curie Sklodowska Med; 2002; 57(1):400-6. PubMed ID: 12898951. Abstract: The aim of the paper is to answer the question whether the Dentocult SM tests could be used to study dental caries activity in the 20-25 age group. 66 students of the Faculty of Dentistry, Medical University of Lublin, were included in the study. In all cases dental state was assessed by using average numbers of DMF and DMFs Ds. In the microbiological examinations a ready-made medium from Dentocult SM set was used. The results revealed that the risk of dental caries in the population studied cannot be determined only on the basis of Streptococcus mutans values.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
