[Dental caries and the local immunity of the oral cavity in Zn deficiency in the environment].
Caries incidence, oral hygiene and local immunity were studied in children living in the areas with soil deficient for zinc and with that with the normal levels of this metal. Higher DCL index, elevated values of the Fedorov-Volodkina oral hygiene index, and lowered levels of salivary secretory IgA and lysozyme were revealed in those living in the areas with soils deficient for zinc.
