An evaluation of the effect on streptococcus mutans adhesion of surface roughness in different aesthetic restorative materials

Abstract

Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect on Streptococcus mutans (S. mutans) adhesion of the surface roughness in different aesthetic restorative materials after the application of different finishing and polishing disc systems to tooth-coloured restorative materials. Material-Method: A total of 126 disc-shaped samples were prepared as 21 for each of the restorative test materials used in the study. The samples were separated into 3 groups of 7 for the application of a different finishing and polishing disc set to each group. Pellicle formation on the surface of the materials was obtained by leaving the samples for one hour in artificial saliva containing mucin. The samples were then incubated in solutions containing S. mutans, and after 24 hours, the number of S. mutans showing adhesion were counted. Results: A statistically significant difference was determined between the materials in respect of surface roughness values and bacteria adhesion (p<0.05), and no significant difference was found between the finishing and polishing disc sets (p>0.05). A positive correlation was determined at the rate of 26.2% between the surface roughness of the materials and S. mutans adhesion (p<0.05). Conclusion: Materials show different surface roughness and adhesion values and the chemical content and physical properties of the material have an impact on this. The reasons of bacteria adhesion on material surface is clarified with in-vitro and in-vivo studies.
