The most common dental disease in childhood is dental caries. This study was carried out to recognize the components of saliva which are protective factors in children to evaluate and predict caries susceptible and caries resistant individuals. Unstimulated whole saliva was obtained from 75 children aged 3-5 years. They divided into three groups: decayed missing and filled teeth (dmft) > 6 (severe caries), 1 P > 0.05 ). Although the results showed that salivary phosphate and alkaline phosphatase in caries free group and calcium in the group with severe caries were somewhat more than those in other groups. Despite of the results of the present study, the relationship between salivary components and caries rate in children remains controversial. So more studies are necessary to achieve some practical criteria for predicting dental caries, recognition of susceptible persons, and finally prevention of caries in children.
儿童期最常见的牙科疾病是龋齿。开展这项研究是为了识别儿童唾液中作为保护因素的成分，以评估和预测龋齿易感个体和抗龋齿个体。从未经刺激的全唾液中采集了75名3至5岁儿童的样本。他们被分为三组：龋失补牙数（dmft）>6（重度龋齿），1 P>0.05）。尽管结果显示无龋组的唾液磷酸盐和碱性磷酸酶以及重度龋齿组的钙含量比其他组略高。尽管有本研究的结果，但儿童唾液成分与龋齿发生率之间的关系仍存在争议。因此，需要更多的研究来制定一些实用标准，用于预测龋齿、识别易感人群，并最终预防儿童龋齿。
