Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine in situ the bacterial viability, thickness and bacterial diversity of a biofilm formed on different substrates in comparison to a naturally tooth-formed oral biofilm. In addition, it will be evaluated whether the restraint of oral hygiene measures may influence the development of the PL-Biofilm.
