The inital bioadhesion on the tooth surface and pellicle formation have a key role for physiological and pathophysiological processes in the oral cavity. Composition and structure of the pellicle in adults have been investigated in detail. Though it is well known that oral environment and salivary composition in children and adults differ considerably, the pellicle in children has not been investigated adequately until now. The present project aims to evaluate proteome, metabolome and enzymology in the pellicle of preschool children systematically. Children with different caries activity will be enrolled in the study. In addition, the ultrastructure of the pellicle will be visualized by electron microscopy and fluorescence microscopy. The metabolome of the pellicle will be evaluated for the first time; this offers new insights in the metabolism at the tooth surface. Combined analysis of the respective parameters offers better and profound understanding of physiological and pathophysiological processes in the initial phase of in situ bioadhesion in the oral cavity.

牙齿表面的初始生物粘附和表膜形成对于口腔的生理和病理生理过程具有关键作用。成人皮膜的组成和结构已被详细研究。尽管众所周知，儿童和成人的口腔环境和唾液成分存在很大差异，但迄今为止，儿童的表膜尚未得到充分研究。本项目旨在系统评估学龄前儿童表膜的蛋白质组、代谢组和酶学。患有不同龋齿活动的儿童将被纳入该研究。此外，薄膜的超微结构将通过电子显微镜和荧光显微镜观察。首次评估薄膜的代谢组；这为牙齿表面的新陈代谢提供了新的见解。对各个参数的组合分析可以更好、更深刻地理解口腔原位生物粘附初始阶段的生理和病理生理过程。
