    Abstract

    Aims: To determine the antimicrobial properties of a selection of dentine bonding agents [DBAs] using the disc diffusion and direct contact methods and an ex vivo method using extracted carious permanent molar teeth. Methods: DBAs (n = 15) were tested using Streptococcus mutans UA159 in disc diffusion and direct contact methods. In the ex vivo study 6 DBAs were selected and pre- and post-treatment samples of carious dentine (n
