Ex vivo evaluation of the antimicrobial properties, physical and mechanical characteristics, and cytotoxicity of orthodontic cement containing silibinin against Streptococcus mutans biofilm
RMGIC containing 5% silibinin effectively reduced S. mutans biofilm around orthodontic brackets without adversely affecting its physical-mechanical properties and showed no toxicity to HGF cells.
