Electrochemical Synthesis, Characterization and Antibacterial Properties of Silver Nanobranch on Orthodontic Braces

Silver nanodal was synthesized on orthodontic braces using silver nitrate salts as an electrochemical method. The synthesized Ag nanobranch were characterized by UV-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Antibacterial microbial performance of Lactobacillus salivarius analyzed with electrochemically synthesized silver nanobranch on orthodontic brackets. The specific antibacterial properties of all the composites showed specific antibacterial effects or antiadherence, independently of the amount of silver nanobranch deposited, likely due to the differences in the bacterial cell wall structures. As a result, the brackets, which are very important for orthodontics, showed a good antibacterial performance with the nanostructures obtained by electrochemically coated with Ag, which is known to have antibacterial properties.
