Abstract excerpt
The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of taste-related gene polymorphisms (CA6, TAS1R1, TAS1R3, TLR2, and TLR4) on dental caries and caries activity in adults. Individuals aged 25-44 years included in the study were assigned to two groups according to the decayed-missing-filled teeth index (DMFT) as the high caries risk (DMFT ≥ 14, n = 100) and the low caries risk (DMFT ≤ 5, n = 100). TaqMan allelic...
