Abstract
Streptococcus mutans levels in saliva were determined in 9-yr-old children from five towns in Iceland. In four towns the mean counts were greater than 10(5)/ml. Serotype c was predominant but types e and d/g were also found. The proportion of children harbouring serotype d/g alone or in combination with other serotypes was higher than that reported in most other studies.
