Genetic Susceptibility to Dental Caries on Pit and Fissure and Smooth Surfaces [PDF]

Caries Research, 2012
Carious lesions are distributed nonuniformly across tooth surfaces of the complete dentition, suggesting that the effects of risk factors may be surface-specific. Whether genes differentially affect caries risk across tooth surfaces is unknown. We investigated the role of genetics on two classes of tooth surfaces, pit and fissure surfaces (PFS) and ...
