This study investigated two of the most commonly used CAD-CAM materials for patient-specific reconstruction in craniomaxillofacial surgery. The aim this was to access biofilm formation Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus mutans, Enterococcus faecalis, and Escherichia coli on titanium PEEK medical implant materials. Two specimens (titanium grade 2 tooled with a Planmeca milling device 5 computer-aided design direct metal laser sintering (CAD-DMLS)) one specimen were studied. Bacterial...

The aim of this study was to assess the biofilm formation Streptococcus mutans, Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis, and Escherichia coli on titanium implants with CAD-CAM tooling techniques. Twenty specimens were studied: Titanium grade 2 tooled a Planmeca milling device (TiGrade 2), Ti6Al4V 5 as it comes from CAD-DMLS (computer aided design-direct metal laser sintering device) 5), 23 23), TiGrade polished an abrasive disc polished). Bacterial adhesion completed without saliva...
