Blood serum and parotid fluid collected without exogenous stimulation from 508 healthy young adult males were analyzed for uric acid and total protein content. Subjects were classified into four periodontal index groups and biochemical correlations with clinical findings were sought.
Neither the rate of parotid gland function nor any of the chemical variables under test differed significantly between periodontal index groups.
