24 Jan 2019
Abstract excerpt
Streptococcus mutans, a primary bacterium associated with dental caries, has four known clinical serotypes (c, e, fand k). Certain serotypes, the presence of multiple serotypes and strains with collagen-binding proteins (CBP, Cnm and Cbm) have been linked with systemic disease. Evaluation of S mutans serotype distribution and caries association is needed in the United States. The purpose of this study was to...
