The role of yoghurt on dental erosion

open access: yesPadjadjaran Journal of Dentistry, 2014
Dental erosion is defined as irreversible loss of dental hard tissue, caused by acid condition in the oral cavity without bacterial involvement. One of the signs of dental erosion is calcium dissolution of the enamel. Yoghurt is a fermented beverage that

Effect of chitosan on the enamel demineralization process in vitro: an enamel solubility test

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2018
Dental caries and erosion are caused by demineralization, which occurs as a result of imbalanced tooth remineralization. Chitosan contains highly acid-reactive hydroxyl and amino groups and thus may affect the solubility of tooth enamel and mechanisms ...

Poly(alkyl methacrylate) tooth coatings for dental care: evaluation of the demineralisation-protection benefit using a time-resolved in vitro method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
An in vitro method for the time-resolved quantification of acid-mediated tooth demineralisation has been developed and evaluated against putative non-permanent protective formulations based on a series of poly(alkyl methacrylate)s.

Evaluation of Enamel Solubility on Exposure to Hard Drinks: An In-Vitro Study

open access: yes, 2019
An enamel is the hardest tissue and forms the outermost layer of teeth. So, it is the one to get exposed to the altered environment in the oral cavity due to various food items, beverages and even addictive substances.
