Abstract
The preparation and use of a ceramic hydroxylapatite plaque growth and drug screening substrate is described. This material has been shown to closely mimic dental enamel in vitro in regard to the rate of plaque accumulation and the effectiveness of antiplaque drugs.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
