Quantities of S. mutans biofilm formed on the glass slide surfaces after 24 h of incubation in THB containing 1% sucrose and different concentrations of ethyl gallate. (A) the surface roughness parameter (Rq) of the biofilm on the glass slides and (B) the biofilm thickness. Data are presented in terms of the mean ± standard error from three independent experiments (n = 18, biofilm roughness; n = 15, biofilm thickness). *p < 0.05 when compared to the control group.
