With the attention now being given to molecular genetic analysis of cariogenic microorganisms, the role of host genes in influencing susceptibility to caries should not be forgotten. Increasing knowledge in this field will lead to identification of individuals at particular risk of dental decay and will help in planning rational strategies for management and prevention.
随着目前对致龋微生物分子遗传学分析的关注,宿主基因在影响龋齿易感性方面的作用不应被忽视。该领域知识的不断增加将有助于识别特别容易患龋齿的个体,并有助于制定合理的管理和预防策略。
