Effect of nanomicelle curcumin-based photodynamic therapy on the dynamics of white spot lesions and virulence of Streptococcus mutans in patients undergoing fixed orthodontic treatment: A randomized double-blind clinical trial

•The anti-virulence and antimicrobial activities of NMCur-aPDT against S. mutans were higher than the VITIS®.•The mean of WSLs in NMCur-aPDT group was lower than the VITIS® in 90 and 120 days of follow-up.•3-The antimicrobial properties of VITIS® and NMCur-aPDT are time-dependent so the highest effe...
