How can toxicological approaches aid in managing Streptococcus mutans?
Toxicological research provides insights into the safe and effective management of microbial populations. For S. mutans, this involves evaluating the efficacy and safety of potential therapeutic agents, such as fluoride, chlorhexidine, and novel antimicrobial compounds. Understanding the toxicological profiles of these agents ensures they do not adversely affect human health while effectively controlling S. mutans.
