<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Early childhood dental caries (ECC) is the most common chronic disease among children with a heavy disease burden among low socioeconomic populations. Streptococcus mutans is most frequently associated with initiation of ECC. Many studies report children with multiple S. mutans strains (i.e., genotypes) having greater odds of developing ECC, studies investigating intraspecies interactions in d...
