Abstract
|
|
|
|
Titanium(Ti) alloys has been mostly concerned with biocompatibility, corrosion resistance, and biofunctionality. However, very little is known, about the biological effects of titanium on microorganism and in particular on the oral flora. So, the effect of titanium on the in vitro growth of oral microorganism forming dental caries was studied under either aerobic or anaerobic condition. In this study, the mostly bacterial species commonly found in dental plaque or gingival sulcus grew well in an aqueous medium containing of titanium standard solution.
