Abstract EN
The evaluation of the degree of bacteria E.
coli adhesion to modified surfaces of the chosen prosthodontic alloys was presented.
The study was carried out on Co-Cr (Wironit), Ni-Cr (Fantocer), and Fe-Cr-Ni (Magnum AN) alloys.
Bare substrate as a control and titanium dioxide coated samples were used.
The samples were placed for 24 hours in bacterial culture medium.
After incubation period, a number of bacterial cells were evaluated by scanning electron microscope.
The study revealed that modification of the alloy surfaces by titanium dioxide coating significantly decreases the amount of bacteria adhering to the surfaces and that additionally bare metal alloy substrates have a different degree of susceptibility to bacterial adhesion.
