The Impact of Adding Chitosan Nanoparticles on Biofilm Formation, Cytotoxicity, and Certain Physical and Mechanical Aspects of Directly Printed Orthodontic Clear Aligners
Aligner treatment is associated with bacterial colonization, leading to enamel demineralization. Chitosan nanoparticles have been demonstrated to have antibacterial properties. This in vitro study aims to determine the effect of adding chitosan nanoparticles to directly 3D-printed clear aligner resi...
