Dental biofilm acidogenicity induced by pediatric oral medications: a double-blind randomized clinical trial.

The aim of this study was to evaluate in vivo dental biofilm acidogenicity induced by nine long-term pediatric oral liquid medications (OLMs). A double-blind crossover randomized clinical trial was conducted with 12 individuals aged 18 to 22 years who had good oral hygiene (OSI < 1.1) and a DMFT index of less than 12.

Physicochemical characteristics and antimicrobial activity of L. essential oil and carvacrol on cariogenic bacteria: an and study.

Natural antimicrobial products have been historically used for the prevention and control of biofilm-dependent oral diseases. We determined the physicochemical characteristics of L. essential oil (OEO) and carvacrol (CAR), and their antimicrobial activity against cariogenic bacteria.

Antimicrobial Activity of Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles on Opportunistic Microorganisms: A Systematic Review.

An evaluation of studies of biologically active nanoparticles provides guidance for the synthesis of nanoparticles with the goal of developing new antibiotics/antifungals to combat microbial resistance. This review article focuses on the physicochemical properties of cerium oxide nanoparticles (CeNPs) with antimicrobial activity. .
