A Qualitative and Comprehensive Analysis of Caries Susceptibility for Dental Fluorosis Patients [PDF]
Dental fluorosis (DF) is an endemic disease caused by excessive fluoride exposure during childhood. Previous studies mainly focused on the acid resistance of fluorotic enamel and failed to reach a consensus on the topic of the caries susceptibility of DF

No genetic causal association between dental caries and Alzheimer’s disease: a bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization analysis [PDF]
Background An increasing number of observational studies have suggested an association between dental caries and Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The association between dental caries and Alzheimer’s disease may be mediated by confounders or reverse causality ...
