IMMUNISATION OF CARIES
VACCINATION AGAINST S.MUTANS
BOWEN 1969: Injected live strain of S.mutans IV to monkeys
they were then fed a cariogenic diet
After 1yr: control - 38 cavities+13 early lesions
Vaccinated - 6 cavities+4 early lesions
2nd EXPERIMENT: broken cells of S.mutans injected into oral mucosa
Control- 64 cavities
Vaccinated - 0 cavities
RAT STUDIES
S.mutans administered via subcutaneous inoculation
this induced salivary sIgA
they were then inoculated with the bacteria, reduced level bacteria recovered
Hence reduced carious lesions
ANTIGEN OF S.MUTANS
Protein antigen I/II
Glucosyltranferase - accumulation
Glucen binding proteins - phase III
Lehner 1980 - monkey experiments
