dc.description.abstractA study of dental caries was made, complementing a basic survey on protein supplement in brown sugar, to measure any possible changes caused by the supplement in questiones_ES
dc.description.abstractAn analysis of the results revealed the surprising fact that Heliconia had the lowest index of dental caries ever reported in Colombia, with statistically significan differences on the order of 5 per cent. Since the rate was half the general rate for Antioquia and since there is no appreciable factor in Heliconia to which the occurrence may be attributed, presumably there is some extrinsic factor present to account for the marked difference. A substance other than fluoride is suspected to exist and to exert a caries-preventive action, since the element was not detected in the urine of the group under study(AU)en_US
