Remineralising effect of 45S5 bioactive glass on artificial caries in dentine
Background This study investigated the remineralisation effect of bioactive glass on artificial dentine caries. Methods Dentine disks with artificial caries were treated with bioactive glass (group BAG), casein phosphopeptide–amorphous calcium phosphate (

Role of Salivary Electrolytes in Prevalence of Dental Caries among Diabetic and Non-Diabetic Adults [PDF]
Introduction: Diabetes mellitus has been linked with an increased risk of caries, gingivitis and periodontal disease. Dental caries is more prevalent and even more severe in diabetic patients than non-diabetics.

The aim of this study is to evaluate salivary remineralisation versus chemical remineralisation/infiltration of enamel, using different dentistry materials. The enamel changes were studied using confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), and the depth of lesions and demineralisation/remineralisation/infiltration percentage were calculated. Additionally,

PEPTIDES IN REMINERALISATION - A REVIEW
Caries develops when the remineralization and demineralization equilibriums are out of balance. When the demineralization level exceeds 30%, the enamel suffers irreversible damage. As a result, non-invasive techniques for early detection and management of these reversible incipient lesions are recommended. Fluorides are the most important and effective,

Efficacy of Three Enamel Protecting Agents on Shear Bond Strength of Orthodontic Brackets Bonded to Demineralised Enamel with Conventional Adhesive [PDF]
Introduction: Enamel demineralisation is common in the patients undergoing orthodontic treatment with fixed appliance and bonding of the orthodontic brackets on demineralised enamel surfaces compromises clinical outcome. Aim: To compare the effect of

Polyols and remineralisation of enamel subsurface lesions [PDF]
Sugar-free chewing gum containing polyols has been demonstrated to reduce caries experience in randomised controlled clinical trials. A range of polyols (mannitol, sorbitol, xylitol and maltitol) can be found in sugar-free gums and it has been claimed that they can facilitate calcium uptake into enamel subsurface lesions promoting remineralisation.The ...
