Antimicrobial Susceptibility to ß-lactams and Metronidazole of Microorganisms Isolated from Chronic and Aggressive Periodontitis
The objective of this study was to evaluate the microbial susceptibility to ß-lactams and metronidazole, and evaluate the production of ß-lactamases by microorganisms isolated from patients with chronic or aggressive periodontitis. The samples were obtained from 50 patients with periodontitis and mi...
