唾液粘度增加可能与龋齿增加有关。为了检查这种关系，在大鼠中的龋齿水平进行了监测，胃插管与桐油，已被证明显着增加唾液粘度。与去油水和玉米油插管相比，桐油插管8周内显著增加大鼠唾液粘度。桐油组大鼠龋损总数显著高于其他两组（P < 0.05）。这种龋损的增加主要与牙齿的光滑表面有关。与其他两组相比，桐油组大鼠牙釉质和牙本质受累程度也显著增加（P < 0.05）。下颌下腺的组织学检查显示，与去离子水和玉米油插管动物相比，桐油插管大鼠的曲颗粒小管中糖蛋白物质的量增加。总的来说，这些结果表明，桐油插管与唾液粘度增加和光滑表面龋齿增加，这表明粘度可能与龋齿进展。
Increased salivary viscosity may be associated with an increase in dental caries. In order to examine this relationship, the caries level in rats was monitored following gastric intubation with tung oil which has been shown to significantly increase salivary viscosity. Tung oil intubation over an 8-week period significantly increased the salivary viscosity in rats as compared with deoinized water and corn oil intubation. The total number of carious lesions was significantly increased (p < 0.05) in the tung oil intubated rats as compared with the two other groups. This increase in carious lesions was primarily associated with the smooth surfaces of the teeth. There was also a significant increase (p < 0.05) in the extent of enamel and dentin involvement of the tung oil intubated rats as compared with the other two groups. Histologic examination of the submandibular glands revealed an increase in the amount of glycoprotein material in the convoluted granular tubules of the tung oil intubated rats as compared with the deionized water and corn oil intubated animals. Collectively, these results suggest that tung oil intubation is correlated with both increased salivary viscosity and increased smooth-surface dental caries, suggesting that the viscosity may be related to dental caries progression.
