Plaque biofilm microbial diversity in infants aged 12 months and their mothers with or without dental caries: A pilot study

Background: A number of studies on oral microbial diversity of early childhood caries (ECC) have tended to focus on mid- or late-stage of ECC, with a lack of research into early stage of tooth eruption and maternal influence. The aims of this study are to compare the supragingival plaque biofilm mic...
