Disease relevance of Diet, Cariogenic

• We induced osteoporosis in 15-week-old Wistar rats by ovariectomy and dental caries by Streptococcus sobrinus infection in the presence of either a high sucrose (cariogenic) diet or a non-cariogenic diet [1].

High impact information on Diet, Cariogenic

• Specific-pathogen-free rats that were infected with ACUS6 and fed a cariogenic diet with drinking water containing 25 mM urea and 50 microM NiCl(2) had relatively high levels of oral urease activity, as well as dramatic decreases in the prevalence of smooth-surface caries and the severity of sulcal caries, relative to controls [2].
• Rats were fed a highly cariogenic diet containing 56% sucrose for 3 to 5 weeks [3].
• Atropine delivered in this manner for 24 days was found to decrease protein concentration of parotid saliva (p less than 0.05) elicited by pilocarpine, and to increase smooth-surface caries scores (p less than 0.05) in rats fed a cariogenic diet [4].
• Rats that had had their submandibular/sublingual glands removed surgically, and their parotid ducts tied, developed fewer and less severe caries lesions on coronal and root surfaces when fed cheese snacks in addition to a cariogenic diet than when fed additional cariogenic snacks or no additional snacks [5].
• In the first experiment, the rats were fed ad libitum a cariogenic diet containing 20% sucrose and 5% glucose (diet SSP 20/5) and tap water containing 0%, 2%, or 4% xylitol [6].

Anatomical context of Diet, Cariogenic

• The effect of fluoride in reducing dentin apposition with a cariogenic diet was dose-dependent, whereas fluoride in non-cariogenic groups had practically no effect on dentin formation [7].

Associations of Diet, Cariogenic with chemical compounds

• The anticariogenic effect of chlorhexidine and fluoride at low concentrations each provided simultaneously with a cariogenic diet, was confirmed [8].
• Fissure caries is reduced when syringic acid is incorporated into a cariogenic diet of rats [9].
• Acidulated phosphate fluoride (APF), Duraphat or Fluor Protector, was applied to the molar teeth of rats fed a cariogenic diet [10].
• Intra-arterial infusion of carbamyl phosphate or of carbamyl-DL-aspartic acid into rats on a cariogenic diet greatly stimulated the movement of fluid through the odontoblastic processes [11].
• No significant difference in lactic acid content was observed in dood residues removed from the occlusal grooves of rats receiving Purina lab chow or the 62% sucrose cariogenic diet [12].
