Development of a novel tongue biofilm index using bacterial biofluorescence

Development of a novel tongue biofilm index using bacterial biofluorescence

Abstract Conventional methods for assessing tongue bacterial biofilms have low inter-examiner reliability due to visualization challenges. This study aimed to develop and assess a novel Tongue Biofilm Fluorescence Index (TBFI) for the accurate detection and objective evaluation of the quantitative a...
