An assessment of early colonisation of implant-abutment metal surfaces by single species and co-cultured bacterial periodontal pathogens

Jun 19, 2018 by in General Dentistry Comments Off on An assessment of early colonisation of implant-abutment metal surfaces by single species and co-cultured bacterial periodontal pathogens

Abstract Objective Numerous studies have proposed that smooth metal surfaces reduce initial bacterial attachment in the establishment of an early biofilm formation. However, these studies have largely examined single bacterial…
