Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to see how different surface treatments of zirconia affect biofilm formation compared to polished titanium in a lab setting and real-life conditions.
- - Various zirconia surfaces were tested (polished, heat-treated, machined, and sandblasted), and findings showed that polished surfaces led to significantly lower biofilm growth in vitro than titanium and some treated zirconia samples.
- - Results indicated that for in vitro biofilms, surface treatments influenced growth, while in situ, the roughness of the surfaces was more critical, suggesting polishing zirconia helps minimize biofilm formation.
