Impact of Antimicrobial Agents against Oral Isolates

Tooth decay is considered the most widespread infectious disease in the world. Its spread increases with time, and this increase is associated significantly with the change of dietary mode of modern humans. This study aims to isolate and identify the important bacteria related to tooth decay, determ...

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 isolates. A total of 50 swabs were collected from the mouths of patients from both sexes, with ages ranging from 1–60 years. The patients were advised to consult with dental clinics and specialized centers to isolate and identify the causative agents associated with oral diseases.
