Response - NO
Brief Summary   The study aims to comprehensively assess the biochemical and microbial characteristics of the oral environment by analyzing plaque bacteria, PH, urea, lactic acid and salivary PH, glucose in diabetic and non-diabetic individuals stratified by caries status.
The objective is to elucidate the relationships between parameters and caries risk, providing a foundation for personalized preventive strategies targeting oral acid-basis homeostasis.
