About this document
Advances in Dental Caries Vaccines by Rajesh Kumar is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses research into developing vaccines against dental caries. Key targets for vaccines include adhesins that allow bacteria to attach to teeth, and glucosyltransferases that produce acids responsible for tooth decay. Research has explored delivering vaccines via oral, intranasal, tonsillar, minor salivary gland, and rectal routes to induce immune responses in mucosal tissues. While challenges remain, subunit and conjugate vaccines targeting virulence factors show promise in preclinical stu
