Core Tip	Recent studies have shown that salivary concentrations of several inflammatory cytokines and insulin resistance indices (which may be lower than serum concentrations) may mirror alterations in systemic concentrations of such biomarkers. Saliva offers a promising diagnostic alternative, compared to blood sampling, for screening for inflammatory, metabolic, and cardiovascular risk factors particularly among pediatric and geriatric populations where blood sampling may be difficult. Additional research is needed to validate salivary biomarkers and establish reference ranges and characterize the influence of diet, physical activity, and drug treatment.
