Abstract:
This study investigates the effectiveness of nanoparticles in preventing the formation of biofilms on orthodontic brackets. Biofilm formation is a common concern during orthodontic treatment, as it can lead to oral health issues.
UNASSIGNED: The study utilized a randomized controlled trial design. The participants were divided into two groups: the experimental group and the control group. The experimental group received orthodontic brackets coated with nanoparticles, while the control group received regular brackets. The patients\' oral hygiene was monitored, and plaque index scores were recorded at specific intervals.
UNASSIGNED: The results of this study demonstrated a significant difference in biofilm formation between the two groups. The experimental group, which had orthodontic brackets with nanoparticle coatings, exhibited a lower plaque index compared to the control group. The mean plaque index score difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05), indicating that the nanoparticles effectively reduced biofilm formation on orthodontic brackets.
UNASSIGNED: In conclusion, the findings of this clinical study suggest that the utilization of nanoparticles as coatings for orthodontic brackets can be an effective approach to prevent biofilm formation.
摘要:
这项研究调查了纳米颗粒在防止正畸托槽上生物膜形成的有效性。生物膜形成是正畸治疗过程中常见的问题,因为它会导致口腔健康问题。
该研究采用了随机对照试验设计。将参与者分为两组:实验组和对照组。实验组接受纳米颗粒涂层正畸托槽,对照组接受常规括号。对患者的口腔卫生进行了监测,并在特定时间间隔记录菌斑指数评分。
这项研究的结果表明,两组之间在生物膜形成方面存在显着差异。实验组,带有纳米颗粒涂层的正畸托槽,与对照组相比,显示出较低的菌斑指数。平均菌斑指数评分差异有统计学意义(P<0.05),表明纳米颗粒有效地减少了正畸托槽上生物膜的形成。
总而言之,这项临床研究的结果表明,利用纳米颗粒作为正畸托槽的涂层可以防止生物膜形成的有效方法。
