AIM: To estimate levels of Streptococcus mitis in children with and without black stain. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate levels of streptococcus mitis in children with black stain, in children with early childhood caries and non carious children. To compare and correlate the level of streptococcus mitis in children with black stain, early childhood caries and non carious children. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study will be done in school going children. 5ml unstimulated saliva samples were collected with and without black stains and evaluated for Streptococcus mitis colony forming units. Results were evaluated and statistics was done. BACKGROUND: Black stain is a discolouration which mainly occurs along the cervical third of buccal or the lingual surfaces of the teeth. It most commonly affects the primary dentition, but permanent dentition may also be affected. Studies state that children with black stain are generally caries free. Thus the aim of the study was to evaluate the levels of Streptococcus mitis in children with black stain and to correlate it in children with ECC and non carious children.
