Abstract
OBJECTIVES: Oral bacterial adhesion on dental implant materials has been extensively studied using in vitro systems but has yielded results restricted to in vitro growth patterns due to limitations in species selection, sustained fastidious anaerobe growth, and mixed culture longevity. The aim of this study was to develop an oral bacterial biofilm model consisting of colonizers representative of the oral microbiome exhibiting temporal shifts characteristic of plaque development and maturation in vivo. METHODS: Streptococcus oralis, Actinomyces naeslundii, Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, Veillonella parvula, Fusobacterium nucleatum, and Porphyromonas gingivalis were grown in monoculture prior to combination in mixed culture. Commercially pure titanium (cpTi) and yttria-stabilized zirconia (ZrO2) disks with polished, acid-etched, or sandblasted surfaces were prepared to evaluate oral bacterial adhesion. After 6 h, 1, 3, 7, 14 and 21 days, genomic DNA from planktonic and adherent bacteria was isolated. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) was used to enumerate the amount and proportion of each species. RESULTS: Early-colonizing S. oralis and A. actinomycetemcomitans, dominated after 6 h prior to secondary colonization by F. nucleatum and V. parvula in planktonic (1 day) and sessile (3 days) form. A. naeslundii maintained relatively low but stable bacterial counts throughout testing. After 14 days, late-colonizing P. gingivalis became established in mixed culture and persisted, becoming the dominant species after 21 days. The composition of adherent bacteria across all substrates was statistically similar at all timepoints with notable exceptions including lower S. oralis bacterial counts on polished cpTi (3 days). SIGNIFICANCE: Within the present model's limitations, multispecies oral bacterial attachment is similar on surface-treated cpTi and ZrO2.
