A novel stable biomimetic adhesive coating for functionalization of orthodontic brackets against bacterial colonization and white spot lesions

A novel stable biomimetic adhesive coating for functionalization of orthodontic brackets against bacterial colonization and white spot lesions

Abstract Background This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of polydopamine (PDA) functionalization on orthodontic brackets in inhibiting biofilm formation and promoting surface bioactivity to buffer the acidity of caries-causing bacteria around orthodontic brackets and prevent demineralization.
