A comparative evaluation of salivary flow rate, pH, buffering capacity, calcium and total protein levels in pregnant and non pregnant women

Abstract: NTRODUCTION: Saliva is a biologic and diagnostic fluid in the oral cavity, composed of a mixture of secretary products from the major and minor salivary glands. 1 Saliva plays key roles in lubrication, mastication, taste perception, prevention of oral infection and dental caries. 3 Normal salivary gland function is essential for the maintenance of oral health. Oral health is affected by many systemic conditions. A decrease in the salivary secretion rate promotes caries and gingival inflammation. 3 Changes in s… Show more

“…Under resting conditions without the exogenous stimulation that is linked with feeding, there is a steady low of saliva which keeps the mouth moist and lubricates the mucous membrane (Hegde, 2016). Unstimulated saliva is essential for the health and well-being of the oral cavity and also bestows a strong protective effect on the oral cavity, against dental caries (Kedjarune et al, 1997).…”
