Assessment of vicK Gene Expression by the Clinical Isolates of Streptococcus mutans Treated with Acetaminophen
Background and Aim: Streptococcus mutans ( S. mutans ), a primary pathogen in dental caries, forms biofilm and is increasingly resistant to antibiotics. This study aimed to assess the antimicrobial and antibiofilm effects of acetaminophen on S. mutans clinical isolates and its impact on vicK gene expression. Materials...
