  • Title: [Salivary levels of immunoglobulin and dental caries in children].
    Author: Bruno B, Pezzini A, Menegazzi M.
    Journal: Boll Soc Ital Biol Sper; 1985 Mar 30; 61(3):381-6. PubMed ID: 4027030.
    Abstract:
    IgG, IgA, IgM and lysozyme levels were determined in whole unstimulated saliva from ten children aged seven-nine years. IgA levels were significantly higher (p less than 0.05) in caries-susceptible subjects when compared with the caries-free ones. High levels of IgG seemed to correlate with a high DMF score. No correlation was found between lysozyme levels and DMF score.
