New Preventive Strategy Against Oral Biofilm Formation In Caries-Active Children: An<em> </em>In Vitro Study
2023-07-06
Abstract excerpt
Caries are lesions caused by acidic compounds derived from the metabolism of bacteria such as streptococci. It is not merely the presence of acidogenic bacteria that causes caries but an imbalance in the oral biofilm microhabitat and its behavior. One factor underlying biofilm formation is quorum sensing (QS), that in gram-positives relies on peptidic molecules, whereas in gram-negatives is driven by small diffusi...
