Test: The UK Department of Periodontics assessed Dental Defense Solution's ability to reduce biofilm on common dental work surfaces, including caps/crowns (polished zirconia), implants (titanium), and hydroxyapatite. DDS was applied to these surfaces once daily for 10 days (5 days for mature biofilm) and reviewed under SEM.
Result: "Application of Dental Defense Solution significantly reduced bacterial growth on all three surfaces, including diseased samples in early and late stages of maturity. Even on rough surfaces, such as implant threads and the inside of a crown, there was a significant decrease in biofilm density with the application of Dental Defense Solution. Furthermore, when applied late to diseased, mature biofilm, Dental Defense Solution resulted in significantly less bacterial growth after just five exposures. We specifically noted a significant decrease in pathogenic-like bacteria, indicating the effectiveness of Dental Defense Solution on dental work surfaces." View Full Report.
