The main aim of this work was to study the simultaneous wear-corrosion titanium (Ti) in presence biofilms composed Streptococcus mutans and Candida albicans. Both organisms were separately grown specific growth media, then mixed a medium supplemented with high sucrose concentration. Corrosion tribocorrosion tests performed after 48 h 216 biofilm growth. Electrochemical corrosion indicated decrease resistance Ti although TiO(2) film presented characteristics compact oxide film. While open...
Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate the density and morphological aspects biofilms adhered different materials applied in oral rehabilitation supported by dental implants. Sixty samples were divided into four groups: feldspar-based porcelain, CoCr alloy, commercially pure titanium grade IV yttria-stabilized zirconia. Human saliva diluted BHI supplemented with sucrose grow for 24 or 48 h. After period, biofilm removed 1% protease treatment then analyzed spectrophotometry...
