Time-dependent microbiome dynamics in orthodontic thermoplastic materials: comparing PETG and TPU

open access: yesClinical Oral Investigations
This study compares the effects of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) and polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG) aligners on the oral microbiome and salivary pH during orthodontic treatment.Ten participants wore TPU and PETG aligners for 24 h. At five time points (1 min, 4, 8, 12, and 24 h), saliva was collected for pH analysis, and microbial samples ...
