Technical ReportOpen accessPhrase in the titleDental Caries Etiology: A Modified Six-Factor Model and Venn DiagramJohn Sami MamounDietary fermentable carbohydrates or sucrose may be metabolized by cariogenic bacteria at a specific tooth surface site, which may result in an episode of the site having a pH of 5.5 or less, that may cause temporary net demineralization. Numerous demineralization episodes at a specific tooth surface may result in a carious lesion if saliva does not remineralize the surface … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 23 Dec 2025 · 3,698 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleImmunologic Aspect of Mice (Mus musculus) Dental Caries Induced by Streptococcus mutansSri MurwaniDental caries (tooth decay), cavities or caries is a breakdown of teeth due to activities of bacteria acid producing in the presence of fermentable carbohydrates. The most responsible bacteria for dental cavities are Streptococcus mutans. Dental shape, saliva pH, normal flora, diets were suggested as predisposition factors for dental plaque and caries. The aim of this research was to study … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 28 Mar 2017 · 8,123 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleDeveloping a System for Antibacterial Treatment of Dental Caries using Culture Based ApproachM. Mishra, S. Ghosh, L. E. Alex et al.Problem statement: Dental caries is a chronic disease worldwide, caused mainly by microbes. The orthograde approaches still remain the only option of treatment. Lack of rapid antibiotic sensitivity determination of the dental pathogen is a rate limiting step in the field of Dental Microbiology. Approach: The culture dependent analysis was used for the study of oral microflora from five healthy … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 18 May 2012 · 9,061 accessesView PDF Cite
