Bacteriological Study on Dental Caries and Test their Sensitivity to Virulence Factors and Heavy Metals

Tooth decay is considered the most widespread infectious disease in the world. This study aims to isolate and identify the important bacteria related to tooth decay, determine the sensitivity of bacteria in certain types of antimicrobial agents, and study the effect of heavy metals on bacterial iso...
