Abstract
The data give, support for the cariostatic effect of tetracycline (T) and the transmissible nature of dental caries. Rats treated with T and housed alone had greatly reduced caries activity; when housed together, T treated animals had caries activity comparable with controls.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
