title: [Secretory immune response in the oral cavity].
abstract: Secretory IgA antibodies may modulate colonization of the epithelial and dental surfaces by different species of microorganisms. The application of enteric vaccines may probably permit controlling caries frequency infants and children. However, the complexity of bacterial communities involved in inflammatory periodontal diseases, currently prevent developing strategies aimed at preventing these processes through immunological mechanisms.
