Figures & Tables

Fig. 1.

Viability (mean + SD) of S. mutans as planktonic cells in suspension and sessile cells (biofilms) on tooth slices treated with; Laser, TBO, and Laser with TBO relative to controls (100% viability). Asterisk symbol represents statistically significant differences in viability in comparison to treatment with laser alone and TBO alone.
