Nano Particles of Babool –Acacia Nilotica Bark Powder Against Oral Microbiome

The oral microbiome is an ecosystem in itself, where some harmful bacteria that are known to cause cavities and disease. Together, both form a community called Biofilm, better known as a dental plaque. Microscopic evaluation of these biofilms indicated that Streptococcus mutans accounts for approximately 80% of the colonization. Chew sticks - twigs of babuul (Accacia nilotica) nanoparticles are more promising against Streptococcus at 20 µg.
