Introduction

Caries Prevalence in Indonesia

Baby bottle tooth decay

Caries Detection for Children

Mucin MG2 responsible to Streptococcus mutans adhesion

Mucin MG2 and Streptococcus mutans

Salivary mucin MG2

α-enolase Streptococcus mutans

Salivary Protein

Mucin MG2

Single monomeric protein

Molecular weigth are less then mucin MG1

Sintesized in acinar serous cell and detected in all sero mucous salivary glands

Adhere with much oral bacteria such as Streptococcus mutans

Methods

Consecutive Sampling Inclusion criteria: children between 3 – 5

yo who have dringking milk by bottle history

Unstimulate saliva collecting

ELISA method with anti mucin MG2 antibody in 450 nm

Discussion

Caries prevalence was represented by deft

Incresing mucin MG2 concentration will increase caries insidence

Discussion

Mucin MG2 will used to:- caries prediction

- caries prevention

Conclussion

Mucin MG2 correlate to caries prevance in baby bottle tooth decay and could be a caries predictor and a tool to prevent caries molecularly
