Caries that affects children under the age of 6 is known as early childhood caries (ECC). According to the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD), ECC is defined as the presence of one or more teeth with caries (cavities or no cavities), missing teeth due to caries or the presence of restoration deciduous teeth in children under 71 months. If it occurred on the smooth surface of the tooth in children under 3 years of age, the disease is classified as severe early childhood caries (S-ECC). Streptococcus mutans plays important role in the etiology of caries of preschool children, which is a contagious pathological entity. The pathogen is an acidogenic and aciduric bacteria. The occurrence of caries is a complex process of interaction between host factors (teeth), microorganisms, substrates (carbohydrates) and the environment, including saliva. This mini review aims to summarize current findings on several markers of innate immune system related to ECC and S-ECC namely lysozyme, salivary lactoferrin, IL-8, CD36 of salivary neutrophils, and sCD14

This article describes an early intervention program designed for speech-language pathologists enrolled in a master's-level program. The program provided students with courses and clinical experiences that prepared them to work with birth to 5-year-old children and their families in a family-centered, interdisciplinary, and ecologically valid manner. The effectiveness of the program was documented by pre- and post-training measures and supported the feasibility of instituting an early childhood specialization within a traditional graduate program in speech-language pathology.
