Early Polylysine Release from Dental Composites and Its Effects on Planktonic <i>Streptococcus mutans</i> Growth

The study aim was to assess the effect of incorporating polylysine (PLS) filler at different mass fractions (0.5, 1 and 2 wt%) on PLS release and <i>Streptococcus mutans</i> planktonic growth. Composite containing PLS mass and volume change and PLS release upon water immersion were asses...
