The impact of <i>Streptococcus mutans</i> biofilms on the color stability and topographical features of three lithium disilicate ceramics
LP ceramics exhibited superior resistance to S. mutans biofilm formation and associated changes in surface roughness and color compared to the Emax CAD and Emax Press ceramics. These findings suggest that the LiSi Press material may be more favorable to mitigate the risk of secondary caries.
