Streptococcus-mutans and Porphyromonas-gingivalis adhesion to glazed/polished surfaces of CAD/CAM restorations
Glazed surfaces for majority of test materials demonstrated decreased adhesion from <i>S.mutans</i> & <i>P.gingivalis</i>, hence prior to final placement of restoration, it is advised to adhere to the minimal glazing criteria. Regardless of the chemical composition of the materials, the surface texture of the tested materials significantly influenced bacterial adhesion.
