Biodegradation of Dental Resin Composites and Adhesives by Streptococcus mutans: An in vitro Study
A major cause for dental resin composite restoration replacement is secondary caries attributed to Streptococcus mutans. Salivary esterases were shown to degrade resin composites. Hypothesis: S. mutans contain esterase activities that degrade dental resin composites and adhesives. Esterase activitie...
