The phosphorus concentration and alkaline phosphatase activity in saliva may be related to the susceptibility to dental caries. Thirty children in the age group of 4-6 years were divided into 3 groups. Group 1, children had rampant caries with dfs>10, group 2- dfs>5<10, group 3 caries free with dfs<1. The unstimulated mixed salivary sample was collected from each child and assayed by biochemical methods to determine the phosphorus and alkaline phosphatase concentration in saliva sample. The results showed that higher alkaline phosphatase activity and phosphorus concentration were associated with rampant caries.
唾液中的磷浓度和碱性磷酸酶活性可能与龋齿易感性有关。30名4至6岁的儿童被分为3组。第1组，患猖獗性龋齿，dfs>10；第2组，dfs>5<10；第3组，无龋齿，dfs<1。从每个儿童收集非刺激性混合唾液样本，并通过生化方法进行检测，以测定唾液样本中的磷和碱性磷酸酶浓度。结果显示，较高的碱性磷酸酶活性和磷浓度与猖獗性龋齿有关。
