Antibacterial activity and effects of aromatic derivatives on denture base polymerization

J. oral res. (Impresa); 8 (supl.1), 2019
Publication year: 2019

This study assessed the effect of copolymerization on the microbiota of the oral cavity. The plant extraction was converted into aromatic derivatives, which were added to methyl methacrylate monomer. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy spectra showed no negative effects of these additives on the polymerization process. All the assayed derivatives displayed some degree of antibacterial activity.
