The Influence of @entity1723 on XXXX and Salivary Flow.

@entity1 @entity1723 @entity1547 @entity6
Objective. To assess whether or not there was any change in the dental caries and rate of salivary flow of @entity1 with @entity1723 ( @entity1723 ) and the contribution of salivary flow to caries risk in @entity1723 . Setting. Department of Endocrinology, MS Ramaiah Hospital, Bangalore, India. Design. A comparative cross-sectional descriptive type. Materials and Methods. The sample consisted of two groups: 140 @entity6 group (mean age 14.8   yr) and 140 nondiabetic group (mean age 13.7   yr). @entity1547 by dmf(t) and dmf(s) indices for primary dentition and DMF(T) and DMF(S) indices was used in permanent dentition to assess the dental caries experience. Both stimulated and unstimulated salivary flow rate were assessed after collection of saliva. Results. In @entity6 group 76% had @entity1547 and in nondiabetic group 85.3% had @entity1547 . Diabetics have lower mean DMFT, DMFS, dmft, and dmfs compared to the nondiabetic group. Diminished unstimulated and stimulated salivary flow rate in @entity6 than nondiabetic group. Conclusions. The findings obtained conclude that even though there was reduced salivary flow rate in @entity6 group the caries prevalence was low.
