Abstract
Background Dental plaque is considered by some to be a secondary reservoir for Helicobacter pylori and thus responsible for gastric reinfection. The aim of this study was to investigate whether testing dental plaque using a rapid urease test (CLOtest) can be used to determine gastric H. pylori status. Methods We investigated dental plaque colonization by H. pylori and its correlation with gastric...Keywords
