Objective: To evaluate and compare antimicrobial efficacy of Chlorhexidine and Chlorine dioxide mouthwashes on S.mutans biofilm created on metal and ceramic self-ligating brackets. Materials and methods: A total of 162 metal and ceramic self-ligating brackets (3M™ SmartClip™ & Clarity SL™) were randomly divided into 3 groups and 2 subgroups. Standard procedures were followed to coat all brackets with S.mutans biofilm. The biofilms were cultivated which were then subjected to the effects of the mouthwashes. Quantitative assessment was carried out by comparing the number of viable colonies of S.mutans. A Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare the data between the experimental and control groups. (p |
