  • Title: [Dental caries, periodontal diseases and salivary immunoglobulins].
    Author: Weyna E, Jaworska D, Dabrowski W, Strzelecka G.
    Journal: Stomatol DDR; 1979 May; 29(5):353-6. PubMed ID: 290078.
    Abstract:
    The authors determined in 80 adolescents (subdivided into 4 groups) the mean content of IgA, IgG and IgM in mixed saliva and brought it in relation to the average caries experience (DMF index), the inflammatory condition of the gingivae, and other parameters. The immunoglobulin content in the saliva was significantly increased in case of high caries experience as well as of severe inflammation. There was no correlation with the OHI which is only increased in case of marked gingivitis.
