Investigation of the effect of rapid and slow external pH increases on Enterococcus faecalis biofilm grown on dentine
Background: Calcium hydroxide is a common endodontic medicament and has an antimicrobial effect by increasing the localized pH within the root canal. However, Enterococcus faecalis has shown some resistance to calcium hydroxide. Methods: A flow cell apparatus was used to grow an E. faecalis biofilm...
