Knowledge of blood groups and their association with oral diseases may help in early diagnosis and treatment strategies. Therefore, the objective of this study was to assess the correlation between ABO blood group and dental caries. This will help to evaluate the type of ABO blood group associated with an increased risk for dental caries.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Method:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The sample size necessary for the study was calculated with G*Power Software version 3.1.9.7 (Heinrich-Heine-University D\u00fcsseldorf in Germany), using a Chi-squared test model with an effect size of 0.5, alpha error of 0.05, power of 95%, and a two-tailed significance level (\u03b1) of 0.05.
