Abstract
Behavioral change is one of the proposed interventions to address concerns regarding dental caries and erosive tooth wear. The impact of these interventions, however, is difficult to measure, and they are rarely considered in clinical studies. This chapter briefly discusses behavior having a genetic origin and describes several pathways that should be targeted for future studies.
期刊介绍:
For two decades, ‘Monographs in Oral Science’ has provided a source of in-depth discussion of selected topics in the sciences related to stomatology. Senior investigators are invited to present expanded contributions in their fields of special expertise. The topics chosen are those which have generated a long-standing interest, and on which new conceptual insights or innovative biotechnology are making considerable impact. Authors are selected on the basis of having made lasting contributions to their chosen field and their willingness to share their findings with others.
