Glycan-binding specificities of Streptococcus mutans and Streptococcus sobrinus lectin-like adhesins [PDF]

, 2018
Since the adhesion of bacteria to the tooth surface is a prerequisite for dental plaque and subsequent caries development, a promising caries preventive strategy could be to block the lectin-glycan-mediated adherence of cariogenic bacteria.

The Oral Bacterial Microbiome of Interdental Surfaces in Adolescents According to Carious Risk

Microorganisms, 2019
Adolescence is closely associated with a high risk of caries. The identification of specific bacteria in an oral microniche, the interdental space of the molars, according to carious risk can facilitate the prediction of future caries and the ...
