Antimicrobial effects and mechanical properties of poly(methyl methacrylate) as an orthodontic acrylic resin containing Curcumin-Nisin-poly(l-lactic acid) nanoparticle: an in vitro study
Abstract Background The porous surface of acrylic orthodontic removable appliances creates a niche for microbial plaque accumulation, and changes the oral flora by raising cariogenic bacteria including Streptococcus mutans. In this study, we evaluated the mechanical properties and antimicrobial acti...
