The corrosion resistance of Wiron®88 in the presence of S. mutans and S. sobrinus bacteria [PDF]

Journal of Materials Science: Materials in Medicine, 2015
The corrosion resistance of Wiron(®)88, a Ni-Cr-Mo alloy, was evaluated in liquid growth media in the absence and presence of the Streptococcus sobrinus and Streptococcus mutans strains. Open circuit potential measurements, cyclic voltammetry, linear sweep voltammetry, as well as electronic microscopy coupled to electron diffraction spectroscopy (SEM ...

Synthesis of Methacrylate Monomers with Antibacterial Effects Against S. Mutans [PDF]

Molecules, 2011
A series of polymerizable quaternary ammonium compounds were synthesized with the aim of using them as immobilized antibacterial agents in methacrylate dental composites, and their structures were characterized by FT-IR, 1H-NMR, and 13C-NMR analysis. Their antibacterial activities against the oral bacterium Streptococcus mutans were evaluated in vitro ...

Proteome analysis identifies the Dpr protein of Streptococcus mutans as an important factor in the presence of early streptococcal colonizers of tooth surfaces. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Oral streptococci are primary colonizers of tooth surfaces and Streptococcus mutans is the principal causative agent of dental caries in humans. A number of proteins are involved in the formation of monospecies biofilms by S. mutans.

Differentiation of banding patterns between Streptococcus mutans and Streptococcus sobrinus isolates in rep-PCR using ERIC primer

Journal of Oral Microbiology, 2011
Streptococcus mutans and Streptococcus sobrinus are considered to be important bacterial species in the initiation of human dental caries. Therefore, the establishment of a reliable genotyping method to distinguish S. mutans from S.

Inhibition of Streptococcus mutans by a commercial yogurt drink

Journal of Dental Sciences, 2019
Background/Purpose: Studies have been focused on using probiotics to prevent caries. The lactobacillus probiotic bacteria in Yakult® (LcY) has been shown to inhibit the growth or biofilm formation of Streptococcus mutans.

Streptococcus mutans Can Modulate Biofilm Formation and Attenuate the Virulence of Candida albicans. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Streptococcus mutans and Candida albicans are found together in the oral biofilms on dental surfaces, but little is known about the ecological interactions between these species. Here, we studied the effects of S.

Infection of Human Dental Pulp Stromal Cells by Streptococcus mutans: Shedding Light on Bacteria Pathogenicity and Pulp Inflammation

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Cariogenic Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) is implicated in the dental pulp necrosis but also in cardiovascular tissue infections. Herein, the purpose was to elucidate how human dental pulp derived stromal cells (DPSCs) react toward a direct interaction

Effect of topical anti-Streptococcus mutans IgY gel on quantity of S. mutans on rats’ tooth surface [PDF]

Acta Microbiologica et Immunologica Hungarica, 2016
This study aims to evaluate the effect of anti-Streptococcus mutans IgY gel on quantity of S. mutans on rats’ tooth surface. Sprague Dawley rats were exposed intra-orally with S. mutans Xc and were fed a caries-inducing diet 2000. The 24 rats were divided into four groups: group A had their teeth coated with IgY gel; group B received sterilized water ...

Accuracy and applicability of periodontitis risk assessment tools: A critical appraisal

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Currently, periodontal risk assessment finds application at first visit (to identify individuals at high risk of either disease incidence, if still healthy, or disease progression, if already diseased) as well as at patient monitoring after active treatment and enrolment in a supportive periodontal care program.

The role of Kuniran (U. moluccensis) and Gurami (O. goramy) fish thorns and scales in increasing salivary leukocyte and monocyte cells viability against Streptococcus mutans

Dental Journal, 2019
Background: Kuniran thorns and Gurami fish scales are rich in protein and minerals such as dentin believed to increase cell viability against Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) that causes dental caries.
