By acupuncture stimulation (at the Chinese meridian point), the total number of oral Streptococci and the caries-pathogenic bacteria, Streptococcus mutans, in the rats were decreased. The anti-RC-20 (Streptococcus mutans) titer of the rat serum increased as the result of acupuncture stimulation. Rat caries induced by a caries induced by a caries-inducing diet (6-PWV) was reduced by acupuncture stimulation.
通过针刺刺激（在中国经络穴位处），大鼠口腔中链球菌总数以及致龋菌变形链球菌数量减少。针刺刺激使大鼠血清中抗RC - 20（变形链球菌）滴度升高。针刺刺激可减轻由致龋饮食（6 - PWV）诱导的大鼠龋齿。
