Abstract :

The environment of the oral cavity is to a large degree created and regulated by saliva. The fact that the teeth and oral mucosa are in constant contact with and bathed by the saliva would suggest that this environmental agent could profoundly influence the state of oral health of a person especially in cases of partially or completely edentulous patients .
