• The Role of Bacteria in the Caries Process (2011, background): “A systematic literature review by Tanzer et al. (2001) confirms a central role for the MS in the initiation of dental caries on enamel and root surfaces.”
• Early childhood caries update: A review of causes, diagnoses, and treatments (2013, background): “mutans and Streptococcus sobrinus are the main cariogenic micro-organisms.[41,42] These acid-producing pathogens inhabiting the mouth cause damage by dissolving tooth structures in the presence of fermentable carbohydrates such as sucrose, fructose, and glucose.”
