La plaque bactérienne est un biofilm composé de microbes, de composants organiques et inorganiques attachés aux tissus mous et durs de la cavité buccale. La plaque dentaire est la principale cause des maladies parodontales, y compris la gingivite et la parodontite, les caries dentaires, la péri-implantite et la stomatite. D'un point de vue écologique, la cavité buccale subit une introduction et une élimination continues des micro-organismes et des nutriments. Afin de survivre dans la cavité buccale, les bactéries doivent adhérer soit aux tissus mous ou durs afin de résister aux forces de perturbation. Une recherche bibliographique a concerné les 60 dernières années de la littérature avec les mots-clés : plaque, formation de plaque, biofilm, propriétés des matériaux et formation de plaques, composites, amalgame, verre ionomère, céramiques et implants dentaires. Les propriétés des matériaux dentaires ont été examinées en relation avec l'adhérence du biofilm. Les méthodes mécaniques et chimiques de contrôle de la plaque ont été examinées. Des développements récents de matériaux de restauration bioactifs ont été considérés pour leurs caractéristiques de surface et l’influence sur la formation de biofilm.
Il est à espérer que les professionnels dentaires trouveront cette mise au point utile pour leur pratique clinique de routine, les traitements dentaires restaurateurs respectueux de l'environnement et les choix de matériaux pour améliorer la qualité de vie de leurs patients.
Bacterial plaque is a biofilm composed of microbes, organic and inorganic components attached to the soft and hard tissues of oral cavity. Dental plaque is the primary cause of periodontal diseases including gingivitis and periodontitis, dental caries, peri-implantitis, and stomatitis. From an ecological viewpoint, the oral cavity undergoes a continuous introduction and removal of both microorganisms and nutrients. In order to survive in oral cavity, bacteria need to adhere either to the soft or hard tissues in order to resist disruption forces. Past 60 years of literature was searched with key words of plaque, plaque formation, biofilm, material properties and plaque formation, composites, amalgam, glass ionomer,
ceramics and dental implants. Dental materials properties were reviewed in relation to biofilm adherence. A very briefly, mechanical and chemical methods of plaque control were reviewed. Recent developments of bioactive restorative materials were reviewed for their surface characteristics and its influence on biofilm formation.
It is hoped that dental professionals would find this narrative review helpful for their routine clinical practice to render, ecological friendly restorative dental treatments and material choices to improve the quality of life of their relatively oral hygiene compliant patients' population.
