Abstract excerpt

The prevalence of six genital genotypes of HPV was assessed in the clinically normal oral mucosa of an adult Caucasian population, and three methods of sample collection compared. HPV DNA was detected in the mouth of 60% of 60 subjects. HPV 16 was the most prevalent genotype, and positive samples were found most frequently in men over 50. A 3% sucrose mouthwash produced more positive results (51%) than mucosal...
