A new insight on childhood severe dental disease (carries)

Researchers at the Forsyth Institute have revealed hints of a bacteria connected with severe early childhood carries. 

The researcher Anne Tanner, BDS, PhD has shown a connection of the bacteria Scardovia wiggsiae which was found at the children's saliva culture, when other known bacteria such as Streptococcus mutans were not found. 

If this is proven to be the case it could lead to new approaches for halting this early childhood dental degenerative disease.

  1. Hallo, Sir. I found this blog once I search information about Scardovia wiggsiae. I'm going to use the picture, and of course assert your site name.

    Do you think we can exchange link? I am also majoring in dentistry at Gadjah Mada University, Indonesia. Thank you very much.

  2. Thank you for the siting. As for link exchange I do not do it, since all the links that I have are of online and paper scientific journals in orthodontics, and medical databases.
    Wish you the best on your dental studies, and thank you for the support.

    Dimitris
