Bacteria and Pathogenesis of Human Salivary Calculus

1 Jan 2002

Abstract excerpt

The exact cause of salivary calculus formation is unknown and the aim of this study was to ascertain whether bacteria play a role. Sialoliths from nine patients with chronic obstructive sialadenitis of the submandibular gland were analysed. Bacterial gene fragments were amplified from DNA extracted from salivary calculi by means of polymerase chain reaction using a universal bacterial primer pair. Comparative 16S...
