Removing biofilms from microstructured titanium ex vivo: a novel approach using atmospheric plasma technology.

Removing biofilms from microstructured titanium ex vivo: a novel approach using atmospheric plasma technology.

The removal of biofilms from microstructured titanium used for dental implants is a still unresolved challenge. This experimental study investigated disinfection and removal of in situ formed biofilms from microstructured titanium using cold atmospheric plasma in combination with air/water spray. Ti...
