MICROORGANISM ADHESION ON DENTURE MATERIALS

Dental prosthetic restorations are applications used for the replacement of missing function and aesthetics in the oral cavity. dentures, as well as natural teeth and oral tissues, provide a convenient environment for the adhesion of microorganisms. although the biofilm on fixed and removable denture materials may seem to be harmless due to its location, the consequences might be severe. the aim of this paper is to review the microorganism adhesion and biofilm formation on different denture materials in the light of previous studies.
