Matrix metalloproteinases: A double edge sword
Dentistry and Medical Research, 2016 Dental caries is a dynamic process which results in demineralization of inorganic constituents and destruction of organic structure of the tooth. The basic mechanism of inorganic demineralization has been studied and documented well enough.
