Abstract:Background: This in vitro study set out to find out how well oral cavity-dwelling bacteria can form biofilms and adhere on the surfaces of zirconium oxide samples created by 3D printing and milling technologies. Methods: 5 strains of microorganisms were used for the study, and 40 zirconium oxide samples were prepared, which were divided into two groups (n = 20)—20 samples produced using removal technology comprised the control group, while 20 samples produced by 3D printing technology comprised the test group.… Show more
