Riesgo microbiológico de caries y factores predisponentes en mujeres gestantes
Microbiological caries risk and predisposing factors in pregnant women

La caries es una enfermedad multifactorial que afecta los tejidos duros del diente, con la evaluación del riesgo de caries es posible determinar la probabilidad de su incidencia durante un determinado periodo de tiempo. El objetivo consistió en determinar el estado de salud bucal en mujeres gestantes y...

A feasible in vitro method to evaluate bacterial infiltration in three implant-abutment connection systems

J. oral res. (Impresa); 13 (1), 2024
Introduction: Microorganism infiltration through the im-plant-abutment interface causes oral health problems such as periimplantitis, leading to implant loss. Materials and Methods: A feasible new method to quantify the Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) infiltration through the implant-abutment interface ...

Análise mecânica comparativa do destorque de parafusos de minipilar com um novo componente protético, juntamente com avaliação microbiológica do vedamento para implantes de plataforma Cone Morse
Comparative mechanical analysis of the untorsion of miniabutment screws with a new prosthetic component, together with microbiological evaluation of the seal for Cone Morse platform implants

A interface implante pilar (IAI) por se constituir de duas peças inevitavelmente apresentam micro lacuna (GAP), na qual pode ocorrer infiltração bacteriana, permitindo a penetração de microorganismos que colonizam na parte interna do implante levando ao acúmulo de biofilme e, podendo levar ao desen...

Serotipos prevalentes de Streptococcus mutans en América Latina
Prevalent serotypes of Streptococcus mutans in Latin America

Rev. ADM; 80 (4), 2023
La microbiota oral está conformada por diversas especies bacterianas que en condiciones normales desempeñan una función protectora del huésped; sin embargo, cuando existe un desequilibrio en el ecosistema, estos microorganismos son capaces de producir diversas manifestaciones como lo es el caso de...

Antimicrobial efficacy of S-PRG containing toothpastes on S. mutans biofilm development

Braz. dent. sci; 26 (1), 2023
Objective: to investigate the antimicrobial effects of toothpastes containing bioactive surface pre-reacted glass particles (S-PRG) on S. mutans biofilms adherence, initial colonization and maturation. Material and Methods: a reference UA 159 and a clinical S. mutans (SM6) strain were used. Bovine en...

Triclosan antimicrobial activity against dental-caries-related bacteria

Braz. j. oral sci; 22 (), 2023
Triclosan (TCS) is a chlorinated diphenyl ether and a possible active agent against microorganisms. Due to its probability of reducing dental plaque accumulation, TCS can be added as a substance for oral hygiene. Aim: To evaluate the efficacy and antimicrobial capacity of TCS against Pseudomonas aerugino...

Streptococcus mutans and Streptococcus dentisani in dental biofilm of children with different caries status: a pilot study

Braz. dent. sci; 26 (3), 2023
Objective:Streptococcus mutans is one of the etiological agents associated with caries due to its ability to metabolize carbohydrates and resist acidic environments. On the other hand, Streptococcus dentisani, shows characteristics associated with caries control due to its ability to inhibit growth of c...

Establishment of a saliva donor selection for in vitro biofilm growth

Introdução: O emprego de biofilmes polimicrobianos, utilizando a saliva como inóculo, é um modelo promissor para o estudo de biofilmes cariogênicos in vitro. Entretanto, ainda não existe uma padronização para seleção de doadores de saliva. Objetivo: O objetivo deste estudo foi estabelecer uma ...

Antibacterial Efficacy of Silver Diamine Fluoride Compared to Casein Phosphopeptide-Amorphous Calcium Phosphate Against Streptococcus mutans in a Biofilm Caries Model

ABSTRACT Objective: To compare the antibacterial efficacy of silver diamine fluoride (SDF) with a product containing casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) against Streptococcus mutans using a biofilm caries model. Material and Methods: Twenty-seven saliva-coated dentine blocks obt...

Estudio de supervivencia de Streptococcus mutans en un tipo de fomite
Survival study of Streptococcus mutans in a type of fomite

Objetivo: Evaluar la supervivencia de Streptococcus mutans (S.mutans)en un tipo de fómite. Método: Se reactivó una cepa de S.mutans ATCC25175 criopre-servada en agar TYCSB. El inóculo se estandarizó en PBS buffer hasta obtener turbidez equivalente al 0,5 de Mc Farland y un OD = 0.01 por espectrofoto...
