• Abstract

  Considering that the biofilm adhesion on the surface of the partial or complete dentures is a prerequisite for colonization and, consequently, for denture stomatitis, the development of methods that minimize or prevent the adhesion to the acrylic resin could produce significant advance in prevention of disease. An alternative treatment would be the surface modification of materials for de…

  Effectiveness of experimental light-cured varnishes and tooth brushing in reducing the biofilm adhesion and biofilms formation to a denture base acrylic resin, AP.R

• Abstract

  The aim of the current study is to investigate the effectiveness of combining toothbrushing with different cleansing agents (water/dentifrice, 1% chlorhexidine gluconate, 1% sodium hypochlorite, perborate- (CoregaTabs); and 0.2% peracetic acid) in inactivating multi-species biofilm (C. albicans, C. glabrata e S. mutans) in two acrylic resins. Additionally, the effect of these agents on th…

  Effectiveness of mechanical brushing with different denture cleansing agents in reducing multi-species biofilm viability and their effects on the surface of acrylic resins, AP.R

• Abstract

  The widespread use of topical and systemic antifungal agents as conventional treatment for oral candidosis has resulted in the development of resistance in C. albicans. Thus, it is necessary to develop alternative therapies for the treatment of oral candidosis. Histatin 5 is a human basic salivary peptide with strong fungicidal properties in vitro. This peptide is extremely rich in one or…

• Abstract

  Background: With recent progress in the analysis of the salivary proteome, the number of salivary proteins identified has increased dramatically. However, the physiological functions of many of the newly discovered proteins remain unclear. Closely related to the study of a protein's function is the identification of its interaction partners. Although in saliva some proteins may act primar…
