Abstract
These results suggest that the level of salivary phosphate may provide a better marker than serum phosphate for the initiation of treatment of hyperphosphatemia in CRF and HD patients. The results may also offer a new horizon in the therapy of hyperphosphatemia by establishing measures to bind salivary phosphate in the mouth, and before saliva is swallowed.
