Representative scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images of S. mutans attached on the experimental resin surface with/without hCS at magnifications of 1000× on the upper, and 5000× on the bottom (A). Representative live/dead fluorescent staining images of S. mutans attached on the experimental resin surface with/without hCS using the confocal laser microscope. Green fluorescence indicates the presence of live cells, while red fluorescence indicates dead cells (B). Relative survival rate of S. mutans (%) by a quantitative analysis of CFUs on the experimental resin surface with/without hCS (C). The different letters indicate significant differences (p < 0.05)
