Synergistic Antibacterial and Antibiofilm Effects of Clindamycin and Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles Against Pathogenic Oral <i>Bacillus</i> Species

Synergistic Antibacterial and Antibiofilm Effects of Clindamycin and Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles Against Pathogenic Oral <i>Bacillus</i> Species

Oral bacterial pathogens, including <i>Bacillus</i> species, form biofilms that enhance antibiotic resistance, promote bacterial adherence, and maintain structural integrity. The ability of bacteria to form biofilms is directly linked to several oral diseases, including gingivitis, denta...
