Oral Health Care Improvement using Combined Toothpaste with Traditional Medicinal Plants

The evolution of microbes, including the development of resistant strains and adaptation, depend on diverse members of the microbial population that can thrive in new condition. Therefore, microbes present remarkable abilities to evolve faster than their hosts do. Oral isolates of different patients...
