Abstract
Potential complications during fixed orthodontic procedures are white spot lesions (WSLs) and tooth decay. This study evaluated the anti-biofilm activity of an orthodontic adhesive (OA) incorporating curcumin (Cur) doped Poly lactic-co-glycolic acid nanoparticles (Cur-PLGA-NPs), which can have the highest concentration of Cur-PLGA-NPs and shear bond strength (SBS) value simultaneously, against cariogenic bacteria i.e., Streptococcus mutans....
