Transmission of mutans streptococci in adults within a Chinese population.

Caries research - 1 Jan 2000

Nie Min, Fan Mingwen, Bian Zhuan

Abstract excerpt

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether there was transmission between adults in Chinese families using chromosomal DNA fingerprinting. Plaque samples were obtained from buccal and occlusal surfaces of 11 married couples. The colonization levels of mutans streptococci were estimated as colony-forming units per milliliter, and caries experience was scored by decayed, missing and filled teeth....
