    Abstract : Introduktion och syfte: Kariesutveckling influeras av faktorer hos både värd och bakterier. Men när olika individer exponeras för samma nivåer av externa riskfaktorer, är en del individer mer mottagliga för karies jämfört med andra. En förklaring skulle kunna vara olika glykosylering av glykoprotein i saliven. READ MORE
