title: Salivary IgA and serum IgG and IgA in recurrent aphthous stomatitis.
abstract: Salivary flow rate and sIgA were measured in twenty-one patients suffering from recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS). Out of this group ten volunteered for continuous study. In these patients salivary IgA and serum IgA and IgG were measured every 3 days for 3 weeks. All parameters were in the physiologic range of healthy people. No correlation with the clinical condition of the patients was found.
