Introduction
This is part 3 of a 10-part series entitled Caries Process and Prevention Strategies. It has been established that a host must be present for caries to develop. In this course, three host factors - the tooth, saliva, and the oral cavity's immune response - are introduced, and their roles in the caries process are explained.
