This systematic review aimed to assess whether dental caries is associated with oxidative
salivary stress. The searches were carried out in electronic databases, including PubMed …

Results: Salivary TAC levels of patients presented a significant increase from active lesion
phase (0.26±0.16) to healing time (0.43±0.41);(P= 0.034). There was no significant …

Oxidative stress biomarkers can be found at detectable concentrations in saliva. These
salivary biomarkers reflect specific oxidation pathways associated with caries and …

Objective: Periodontitis is one of the main diseases in the oral cavity that causes tooth loss.
The host immune response and inflammatory factors have important role in periodontal …

Caries are a pathological process of extracorporeal nature, characterized by
demineralization of inorganic substances as well as proteolysis triggered by acids produced …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are byproducts of cell metabolism produced by living cells
and signal mediators in biological processes. As unstable and highly reactive oxygen …

Chronic oxidative stress and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in oral cavity as well as acidic
pH on dental enamel surface due to the metabolic activities of bacterial plaque are the major …

Objectives To determine salivary melatonin and malondialdehyde levels in individuals with
and without dental caries. Materials and methods Saliva samples were collected in a fasting …

Objective Some salivary proteins seem to be differently abundant among caries-free (CF)
and caries-affected (CA) individuals, but previous results are contradictory precluding that …

Objective: There has been variation reported in literature examining the relationship
between dental caries and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) of saliva in children. This study …
