The field of cariology is exciting because of the real possibility for an effective therapy to prevent cavities. Two major research projects have resulted in significant discoveries in this field. Dr. Jeffrey Hillman started the first project while at the Forsyth Institute, the 5 [University of Florida, and more recently at Oragenics Inc. Dr. Hillman discovered that by mutating a certain gene in S. mutans, he was able to prevent the bacterium from producing lactic acid and consequently causing tooth decay and cavities. How does this help prevent cavities? S. mutans can be present in the mouth early in life when our teeth erupt, and it 79 10 stays with us for the rest of our lives. Dr. Hillman used the genetically modified S. mutans that cannot produce lactic acid for something called replacement therapy. In replacement therapy, the idea is to replace or exchange one organism with a nearly identical, but less pathogenic, version of the same organism. In this case, the principle is to replace the cavity-causing S. mutans 15 |] with the genetically modified S. mutans early in life so that the S. mutans that people have in their mouths is not able to cause cavities. In experiments with human volunteers, the genetically modified S. mutans remains in the mouth for many years and prevents the cavity-causing version of the bacterium from growing. In the future, a visit to the dentist may consist of the dentist swabbing 20]|teeth for a few minutes with the genetically modified S. mutans to prevent cavities for a lifetime. The second exciting research area in the field of cariology is the development of a vaccine for cavities. The idea behind a vaccine is to use the natural immune system for protection. A vaccine consists of part of a pathogen that is injected 25 ]Jinto the body to stimulate an immune response. This part of a pathogen is called an antigen. The cavities vaccine uses part of S. mutans. It has been shown that antibodies directed against different parts of S. mutans could prevent its attachment to tooth surfaces and possibly its ability to produce acid from sugar (Figure 6.5). 30]{In laboratory experiments using different animals, it was found that administration of the vaccine could result in the production of antibodies in the mouth that were able to at least partially prevent cavities. In the next step, researchers used humans to test the vaccine. They gave the vaccine to young adults and found that the antibodies produced were able to delay the 35 fj accumulation of S. mutans in the mouth. However, in order to be effective, the vaccine will have to be given to infants or young children (one to three years old) since this is the age when people are most prone to being colonized by S. mutans. Hence, if S. mutans can be prevented from invading the mouth fron 39 Ii the start, the chances of getting cavities later in life are diminished significantly 80 A Vaccine for Cavities?
