Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disease that can occur in childhood and adolescence as a result of insulin deficiency,of peripheral resistance or both. Signs and symptoms in the oral cavity correlate this disease to dentistry, besides the increase of periodontal diseases and dental caries.The aim of this study was to evaluate the saliva of children with and without diabetes mellitus type 1 (DM-1).Salivary samples were collected and tested with culture kits for Lactobacillus and S. mutans,incubated and counted as manufacturer instructions (Laborclin®).Results achieved means of 4.5 and 3.5 (log10 and p = 0,01) for Lactobacillus in DM-1 children and normal children, respectively. S. mutans counts revealed means of 4.1 and 3.7 (log10 and p = 0,11) for DM-1 children and normal children, respectively.Statistically,it is possible to conclude that pediatric patients with diabetes mellitus type 1 have greater counts of salivary Lactobacillus than normal children.
