Summary:The aim of this study is to asses the relationship between the level of sIgA and dental caries experience in healthy children who are 6- to 9-years-old from Indonesia. The case-control study is conducted to determine the protective role of salivary secretory immunoglobulin A (sIgA) levels in the stimulated whole saliva of dental caries-active and caries-free children. This research was done by stimulating the whole saliva which had been collected from 6- to 9-years-old children with the index ≥3 of 30 children as the caries-active children group and 30 children with
