Salivary counts of total facultative anaerobes (TA), total anaerobes (TAN), total Gram-negative anaerobes (TGN), total streptococci (TS), and total lactobacilli (TL) in S-ECC and caries free individuals. Black bar, child subjects; gray bar, siblings and white bar, primary care giver. Data were analyzed using the one-way ANOVA with Scheffe test for significance within and between bacterial groups and within and between families. Significant differences (p < 0.05) in lactobacilli counts were found between cavity free children and their families and between S-ECC children and their family members for Gram-negative anaerobe counts.
