The fidelity of mutans streptococci transmission and caries status correlate with breast-feeding experience among Chinese families.

Caries research - 1 Jan 2000

Li Y, Wang W, Caufield P W

Abstract excerpt

Our previous study reported that the fidelity of mutans streptococci (MS) transmission from mother to infant was gender- and race-specific within a Birmingham, Ala., population. We hypothesized that fidelity might be a function of postnatal nurturing practices. The purpose of the present study was to investigate those factors that could be correlated with MS transmission among Chinese children whose nurturing...
