Study of Dental Plaque in Orthodontic Patients

J. W. BALENSEIFEN 1 and J. V. MADONIA 1

1 Departments of Oral Biology and Microbiology, Loyola University School of Dentistry Maywood, Illinois 60153

Plaque samples were collected and studied from orthodontic patients before and after placement of orthodontic bands and arch wires. The samples were assayed for changes in pH, carbohydrate content, and microbial populations of streptococci and lactobacilli. Statistically significant increases of plaque pH, carbohydrate content, and microbial populations were noted.
