Inherited Risks for Susceptibility to Dental Caries

  1. Do individuals who have inherited genes that alter the formation of enamel and/or dentin have an increased prevalence of carious lesions when compared to individuals who do not have the same genetic deficiency?
  2. Do individuals who have inherited genes that alter the host and/or immunological response to cariogenic microorganisms have an increased prevalence of carious lesions when compared to individuals who have not inherited the same genes?
  3. Do individuals who have inherited genes that alter the intake and/or metabolism of cariogenic carbohydrates have a decreased prevalence of carious lesions when compared to individuals who have not inherited the same genes?
  4. Do individuals who have inherited genes that alter either the composition or quantity of saliva have an increased prevalence of carious lesions when compared to individuals who have not inherited the same genes?
