Thalassemia constitutes a group of congenital blood disorders which characterized by a defect in synthesis of one or more globin chains of human hemoglobin molecule and the resultant microcytosis and hypochromia of the RBCs. It is of two main divisions, α- and β-thalassemia and several other subdivisions. The study group composed of 40 patient years previously diagnosed with β-thalassemia major attending the thalassemia center in Thi-Qar province/Iraq. The control group, matching the age and sex of the study group, and consisted from 40 child selected from a number of primary schools. Unstimulated salivary samples was taken from each subjects under standardized conditions. The mean value of flow rate of saliva was lower among β-thalassemias (0.466 ± 0.024) than for controls (0.829 ± 0.048). The (mean ± SE) for the primary teeth (dmfs) in β-thalassemias (1.450 ± 0.324) was higher than that for controls (1.250 ± 0.808), this difference was not significant (P>0.05). The (mean ± SE) of the caries experience (DMFs) in β-thalassemias (6.850 ± 0.782) was higher than for the control group (3.600 ± 0.489).Keywords
