Biofilms in Orthodontics: Consequences, Treatment and Prevention Summary: Orthodontic treatment is more popular than ever, and not only includes juveniles anymore but also adults. Orthodontic appliances hamper the maintenance of oral hygiene and provide numerous additional surfaces in the oral cavity to which bacteria can adhere and form a biofilm. Biofilms on orthodontic appliances can cause a variety of problems on hard and soft tissues directly surrounding the appliance, such as white spot enamel lesions and soft tissues inflammation, compromising dento-facial esthetics after an often lengthy and costly course of treatment. Despite preventive measures, the prevalence of biofilm-related problems in orthodontics remains high. The aim of this presentation is to review the most prevalent sideeffects of orthodontic treatment that can be attributed to biofilm formation and to discuss potential treatment and preventive measures.
