a Concentrations of glucose, l- and d-lactate found in the basal cell culture medium after 24 h of co-culture of the TR146 cells with different oral microbial species (mean ± SD; *p < 0.05). Microbiota were pre-incubated for 4 h on the insert, before they were exposed to the wounded TR146 cells. b Wound healing capacity of TR146 cells in cell culture medium with different glucose concentrations (mean + SD; *p < 0.05). c Wound healing capacity of TR146 cells treated with different d-lactic acid concentrations (mean + SD; *p < 0.05).
