Efficacy of BioMin F and NovaMin toothpastes against *streptococcus mutans*: an *in vitro* study

H. D. Alomari, Y. A. Tolibah, et al.

This *in vitro* study, conducted by Haya Doura Alomari, Yasser Alsayed Tolibah, and Chaza Kouchaji, reveals the remarkable antibacterial prowess of BioMin F toothpaste against *Streptococcus mutans*, outshining both NovaMin and Signal toothpastes. With a mean inhibition zone diameter of 2.67 mm, BioMin F suggests a promising future in caries prevention.

Abstract
This *in vitro* study investigated the antibacterial efficacy of BioMin F and NovaMin toothpastes against *Streptococcus mutans* compared to Signal toothpaste. BioMin F exhibited the highest mean inhibition zone diameter (2.67 mm), significantly greater than NovaMin (0.39 mm) and Signal (2.19 mm) (p < 0.001). BioMin F demonstrated superior antibacterial activity, suggesting its potential as a caries prevention measure.
