Polymer Composite Design Strategies for Antibacterial Resin-Based Dental Restorative Composites: Mechanisms, Structure–Property Relationships, and Translational Challenges
Dental resin composites are widely used for direct restorations, yet their longevity remains limited by biofilm accumulation and secondary caries at the tooth–restoration interface. Unlike previous reviews that have primarily organized antibacterial dental materials according to antimicrobial agents or mechanisms, this...
