[The effect of various front tooth filling materials on the in vitro growth of Streptococcus mutans].
While silicate cement inhibits bacterial growth, resin materials promote it immediately after mixing. Toxic tissue reactions may be induced by bacterial plaque accumulation. Our testing method complements existing in-vitro tests for recording chemo-toxic activities.
