Abstract

It is apparent that several dietary factors cooperate in the production of experimental dental fissure caries in rats. The lesions are due primarily to the ingestion of particles of coarsely ground raw cereal, such as rice or corn, included in the diet from the time of weaning; but other dietary conditions influence the prevalence of caries in significant degree (7, 8, 9). This report presents the results of further studies of some of these secondary or modifying influences on caries produced with coarse rice and corn diets.
