Transmission of mutans streptococci in mother-child pairs
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Dental caries is an infectious, transmissible disease. Maternal transfer of mutans streptococci (MS) has been a subject of research. The aim of this study was to evaluate the transmission of MS from mother to children through genetic analysis. METHODS Thirty mother-child pairs were included and divided into three groups according to the age of the children. Saliva samp...
متن کاملPrevention of Mother to Child HIV Transmission
In Iran 8% of HIV- infected cases are women. Since most of them are young and in childbearing ages, in case of becoming pregnant and not receiving preventive measures, they can infect their child. Without Preventive measures transmission rate is 15 to 45 percent. Several factors such as sever stage of HIV and AIDS ,CD4 low count, high viral loud, acute retroviral phase, STDs, vaginal delivery, ...
متن کاملMutans streptococci: acquisition and transmission.
Dental caries is an infectious and transmissible disease. The mutans streptococci (MS) are infectious agents most strongly associated with dental caries. Earlier studies demonstrated that infants acquire MS from their mothers and only after the eruption of primary teeth. More recent studies indicate that MS can colonize the mouths of predentate infants and that horizontal as well as vertical tr...
متن کاملAcquisition and transmission of mutans streptococci.
Dental caries is an infectious and transmissible disease. The mutans streptococci and some Lactobacillus species are the two groups of infectious agents most strongly associated with dental caries. Earlier studies demonstrated that infants acquire mutans streptococci from their mothers and only after the eruption of primary teeth. More recent studies indicate that mutans streptococci can coloni...
متن کاملMaternal transmission of mutans Streptococci in severe-early childhood caries.
PURPOSE This study utilized multiple genetic analyses to detect evidence of maternal MS acquisition in children with S-ECC. METHODS Twenty-seven mother/child pairs were selected from children with 5-ECC preceding dental rehabilitation under general anesthesia. Plaque samples were collected from the mother, child, and the child's carious lesion. Arbitrarily primed-polymerase chain reaction (AP...
