In vitro study of the antibacterial properties and microbial colonization susceptibility of four self-etching adhesives used in orthodontics

Abstract

CPB has shown antimicrobial properties in vitro, and, provided the limitations of an in vitro study, the use of this self-etching adhesive may contribute to reduce microbial decalcification, making the use of this self-etching adhesive an attractive option for bracket bonding.
