Abstract

OBJECTIVES: on the structure, morphology, and composition of a cariogenic three-species biofilm. METHODS: in the biofilm was selectively cultured, and its colony-forming units were counted. RESULTS: increased and became predominant in the biofilm. CONCLUSIONS: within the cariogenic three-species biofilm, destroys its integrity, and consequently makes the biofilm easy to remove.
