Phosphomimetic statherin‐derived peptide protects against intrinsic enamel erosion independently of sodium trimetaphosphate

European Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract This in vitro study evaluated the effect of a phosphomimetic statherin‐derived peptide (DDSt15), alone or combined with sodium trimetaphosphate (TMP), on the protection against initial enamel erosion. A total of 102 bovine enamel samples (4 × 4 mm2) were prepared and randomly allocated into six groups (n = 17): deionized water (negative ...
