The agar plate diffusion test was used for the cultures, which included chlorhexidine as a positive control. The results demonstrated that all the cements evaluated presented antibacterial activity. Based on the results of this study, it can be concluded that Fuji IX and Ketac Molar presented the most effective antibacterial activity considering the ART approach.1859-1862engArtigo10.1007/s10856-007-3035-4WOS:000251015800023Acesso restrito8672541377335694
