入选标准
- •Subjects must be a patient of record at Children's Hospital Colorado Dental Center
- •Child must fall between 24 and 96 months of age
- •Child must present with full primary dentition
排除标准
- •Patients with a complex medical history classified as being greater than ASA II

研究组 & 干预措施
Child with full primary dentition
All children who match inclusion criteria are eligible to have a saliva sample obtained which will act as a proxy for bacterial levels. High bacteria levels are correlated with a higher risk of developing cavities.
干预措施: GC Strep Mutans Saliva Sampling (Device)
结局指标
主要结局
Count of Strep Mutans bacterial
时间窗: 4 weeks
Bacterial (MS) samples resulting in〖5x10〗\^5 colony-forming units per milliliter of saliva (CFU/mL) indicates a low caries risk. In contrast, \>〖5x10〗\^5 CFU/mL of MS in a saliva sample correlates to a moderate or high caries risk. This study is designed to use saliva sampling to determine a non-surgical adjunctive therapy to help lower cavity causing bacteria.
