Saliva, as an innovative and accessible diagnostic fluid, is transforming research and clinical practice in both dentistry and medicine. This volume offers a comprehensive overview of advances in the use of salivary biomarkers and the evolving characteristics of this fluid, emphasizing their value in early diagnosis, monitoring, therapeutic response, and the prevention of a wide range of oral and systemic diseases. Key topics include the oxidant–antioxidant balance, xerostomia, hyposalivation, periodontal disease, glandular disorders, and the detection of potentially malignant lesions. The book also explores emerging approaches such as nanoparticle-based biosensors and novel technologies in salivary gland surgery. In addition, it presents new perspectives on the role of neuropeptides and cytokines in assessing stress and resilience, underscoring the significance of saliva as a window into complex biological processes. By bringing together the most up-to-date evidence and practical applications in a single volume, this book highlights the non-invasive, safe, and increasingly reliable nature of saliva as a source of clinical information. Aimed at researchers, health professionals, and students, this book serves as an essential guide to understanding the expanding potential of saliva as a diagnostic fluid and as a cornerstone in the future of personalized medicine and preventive dentistry.
