New possibilities in the visualization of subgingival microbial biofilm using scanning electron microscopy

[Stomatology]

Subgingival microbial biofilm is one of the initiating etiological factors of periodontal diseases. Images obtained using classical scanning electron microscopy and scanning electron microscopy with 3D visualization were compared. The 3D image improves the quality of the study of the morphology of microorganisms and architectonics of undisturbed subgingival microbial biofilm.
