VDR and TFIP11 Gene Polymorphism and Gene-environmental Interaction in Adults

April 12, 2021 updated by: Gul Yildiz Telatar, Recep Tayyip Erdogan University Training and Research Hospital

Association Between Enamel Gene Variants and Dental Caries in Adults

VDR and TFIP11 Gene polymorphism and gene-environment interactions on caries etiology and susceptibility in adults.

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

To date, genes can be grouped into categories based on the factor influencing dental caries. The major candidate gene categories to date include enamel formation genes, immune response genes, genes related to saliva, and genes related to taste and dietary habits.

TFIP11 and VDR genes are related to enamel formation genes
