Erosion protection conferred by whole human saliva, dialysed saliva, and artificial saliva [PDF]
AbstractDuring dental erosion, tooth minerals are dissolved, leading to a softening of the surface and consequently to irreversible surface loss. Components from human saliva form a pellicle on the tooth surface, providing some protection against erosion.

SARS-CoV-2 infection of the oral cavity and saliva
Despite signs of infection—including taste loss, dry mouth and mucosal lesions such as ulcerations, enanthema and macules—the involvement of the oral cavity in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is poorly understood.

Tribo-corrosion of steel in artificial saliva [PDF]
Stainless steel is widely used as dental implant. However, there has been little work on the micro-abrasion of such materials in laboratory simulated oral environments, where abrasion, sliding wear can interact simultaneously.
