Anti-adherence and anti-bacterial activities of resin extract against strongly adherent strains.

Background: The reduction of from the oral cavity or its adherence to tooth surfaces can prevent or decrease the progression of caries. In this study, the antimicrobial and anti-adherence properties of () resin (Essential oil [EO] and methanolic extract [ME]) were investigated on strains.

Materials And Methods: In this experimental study, the growth rate, biofilm formation ability, and antibiotic susceptibility profile of ATCC35668 and 3 strains isolated from caries lesions were studied.
