Silanized aluminum borate whiskers (ABWs) of 4 wt%, silanized zirconium dioxide nanoparticles (nano-ZrO 2 ) of 2 wt% were mixed with polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) powder to get ZrO 2 -ABWs/PMMA composites. Titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ), silver-supported titanium dioxide (Ag/TiO 2 ), silver-supported zirconium phosphate (Novaron) and tetrapod-like zinc oxide whiskers (T-ZnOw) antibacterial agents of 3 wt% were mixed with ZrO 2 -ABWs/PMMA composites respectively to fabricate standard specimens. Plaque biofilms on the specimens surface were investigated for colony-forming units (CFUs). In addition, cytotoxicity and mechanical behavior were evaluated. Results showed that the CFUs values of S. mutans and C. albican biofilms on the four antibacterial composites surface were all reduced (p&lt;0.05) compared to the blank and control groups. The antibacterial composites did not have an adverse effect on fibroblast growth in this study (p&gt;0.05) except TiO 2 and Ag/TiO 2 groups of undiluted extracts. The flexural strength and surface hardness of Novaron and T-ZnOw groups were increased (p&lt;0.05) compared to the control group.
