目的：检测变形链球菌（S。变形链球菌），并将这些人的龋齿与他们的S.变异病毒滴度。使用Dentocult SM商业试剂盒，在200例25-35岁成人（男性和女性）中估计唾液中的变形链球菌水平。在87%的研究样本中检测到变形链球菌。发现表示唾液的105-106 CFU/ml（菌落形成单位）的评分2是最普遍的，即在200名成人中的80名中，其次是评分1，其描述了200名成人中的56名中的变形链球菌<105 CFU/ml，以及评分3，其细菌滴度在200名成人中的38名中>106 CFU/ml。使用Møller指数记录的龋齿在得分为3的个体中最大，其次是得分2、1和0，从而显示龋齿与S滴度的增加呈正相关。变异人这种相关性在男性中具有统计学高度显著性，评分2时的表面腐烂率为8.73，评分3时上升至17.38。在本研究中，女性的DMFT均值高于男性。男性和女性的分裂数据显示龋齿经历和唾液S之间呈正相关。变种人得分。这项研究的结果将作为未来规划成人预防计划的基线数据。
To determine the level of Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) in adults of Chandigarh and to correlate the dental caries in these individuals with their S. mutans titers. Salivary levels of Streptococcus mutans, using Dentocult SM commercial kits were estimated in 200, 25-35 year old adults (males and females). Streptococcus mutans were detected in 87% of the study sample. Score 2, representing 105-106 CFU/ml (Colony Forming Unit) of saliva was found to be most prevalent, i.e. in 80 of 200 adults, followed by score 1, depicting S mutans with <105 CFU/ml, in 56 of 200 adults and score 3, with bacterial titer >106 CFU/ml in 38 of 200 adults. Dental caries, recorded using Møller's index, was found to be maximum in individuals with score 3, followed by score 2,1 and 0, thereby showing a positive correlation of dental caries with increasing titers of S. mutans. This correlation was statistically highly significant in males with figures as 8.73 decayed surfaces at score 2 rising to 17.38 at score 3. The mean of DMFT was higher among females than in the males in the present study. The split up data in males and females, showed a positive association between caries experience and salivary S. mutans scores. The results of the study will serve as a baseline data for future planning of preventive programs in adults.
