This study aimed to develop a low cost in vitro viable microbiological model to produce biofilms to be used in dental researches. Single and multi-species biofilms of S. mutans, S. sobrinus, S. mitis, S. salivarius, S. cricetus and S. sanguinis were grown on bovine enamel slabs during 10 days, in a...
