What is Antibacterial and Remineralizing Nanocomposite Inhibit Root Caries Biofilms and Protect Root Dentin Hardness at the Margins about?
## Objectives: Senior patients have a high incidence of tooth root caries. the objectives of this study were to: (1) develop a bioactive composite with calcium (ca) and phosphate (p) ion-release and antibacterial capabilities via nanoparticles of amorphous calcium phosphate (nacp) and dimethylaminohexadecyl methacrylate (dmahdm); (2) inhibit root biofilms of streptococcus mutans, lactobacillus acidophilus and candida albicans in a biofilm-based recurrent root caries model to protect root dentin hardness under biofilms for the first time. ## Methods: Five groups were tested: (1) heliomolar nanocomposite (commercial control); (2) experimental composite control (0% nacp, 0% dmahdm); (3) remineralizing composite (30% nacp); (4) antibacterial composite (3% dmahdm); (5) remineralizing and antibacterial composite (nacp + dmahdm). colony-forming units (cfu), lactic acid and polysaccharide of biofilms were evaluated. demineralization of bovine root dentin with restorations was induced via multi-species biofilms, and root dentin hardness was measured. ## Results: Adding nacp and dmahdm into composite did not compromise the mechanical properties (p > 0.05). biofilm lactic acid, polysaccharid
