The effect of Streptococcus mutans on the Corrosion Behavior of Nickel-Titanium Dental Alloys - In Vitro Study
Abstract
This study aimed to compare the resistance of dental alloys to corrosion in a solution containing oral bacteria named Streptococcus mutans (S.mutans). The electrochemical behavior of Nickel-Titanium (NiTi) was investigated in sterile Fusayama artificial saliva (AS) with the enrichment medium tryptic soy broth (TSB) in solution 1 and (AS) with (TSB) and bacteria in solution 2. The electrochemical procedures selected for this work were open circuit potentials (OCP), Potentiodynamic polarization (PDP), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The NiTi surface was examined using optical microscopy.
   After 24 hours of immersion in artificial saliva, the results have shown that NiTi revealed high corrosion reactivity in the presence of S. mutans and present pitting corrosion on the surface.
