Article Synopsis
- - Chlorhexidine (CHX) is commonly used in dentistry to help reduce gum inflammation, swelling, and bleeding.
- - The study examines how CHX grafted onto titanium can affect oral pathogens like S. mutans and S. aureus.
- - CHX grafted titanium surfaces demonstrate effective anti-adherent properties against these harmful bacteria.
