Eighty-nine caries-immune human beings were observed clinically and bacteriologically during a 3-year period. These were divided into 3 clinical categories based on the clinical anatomic condition of the teeth. Bacteriologic examination showed that low or zero salivary lactobacilli counts were common in most of the immune individuals, but no striking bacteriologic differences were found among the 3 clinical groups. Five individuals who developed caries under observation were found to exhibit differences in salivary lactobacilli from those who did not develop dental caries.
