Description
Genetic modification of dental bacteria, illustration. Dental bacteria can cause plaque (left), a bacterial biofilm that can form on teeth and can cause tooth decay. An example of a bacterium that metabolises sugar in the mouth in this way is Streptococcus mutans. Genetically modified bacteria (purple, right) can be designed to prevent the development of plaque on teeth. For this illustration with labels, see image C047/7647.
