An elevated IgG antibody response to D-alanyl LTA may therefore indicate the subjects in whom an inhibitory effect of fluoride on caries is enhanced.

5%, respectively [ 11 13 ] . The failure rate after 10 years due to coping/porcelain fractures was 5%, while the remaining 1.5% failure rate was due to poor marginal fit that had resulted in caries [ 13 ] . In addition to these failures, minor fractures occurred in 5% of the remaining crowns [ 13 ] . These chipped crowns were polished and continued to function normally.
High IgG antibody responders are therefore better protected from caries in an optimally fluoridated environment.
Despite few investigations of caries risk in 22-38 year old subjects compared with a younger or older group [ 7 ] , the association of DMFT with PL in this study agrees with that obtained from 35 year old Norwegians [ 3 ] . Plaque (simplified oral hygiene index measurement) accounted for 15% of the variance in number of decayed/filled teeth surfaces in that study, and for 19% of the DMFT variance within all 151 clinically examined subjects in this study (ignoring age, antibody and all other variables).
