Co-operative effect of exogenous dextranase and sodium fluoride on multispecies biofilms

Background/purpose: The co-operative effect of exogenous dextranase (Dex) and sodium fluoride (NaF) on Streptococcus mutans monospecies biofilms is impressive. Here we investigated the effects of the combination on a mature cariogenic multispecies biofilm and analyzed the potential mechanism. Materi...
