Enamel Carious Lesion Development in Response to Sucrose and Fluoride Concentrations and to Time of Biofilm Formation: An Artificial-Mouth Study

Table 2

Counts of viable cells on biofilms (CFU/mL), IML, and LD (mean ± sd) of enamel slabs after 3 and 9 d of biofilm formation under exposure to sucrose 3% and 0.75 ppmF.
