Laser – fluorescence based evaluation of remineralization in artificial enamel lesions using three commercially available re-mineralizing agents – An invitro study

The objective of this in-vitro study is evaluation remineralization potential three agents- Tricalcium phosphate flouride(TCP-F), Calcium sucrose phosphate(CaSP), Casein phosphopeptide- amorphous calcium phosphate(CPP-ACP) in artificial enamel lesion using laser fluorescence based DIAGNOdent(KaVo). 30 single rooted premolars were selected. Samples randomly divided into 3 groups with 10 samples each. Baseline values recorded before any intervention. A 4mmx4mm window was prepared on the buccal surface which then subjected to demineralization for 96 hr at 37°C. DIAGNOdent after demineralization. Remineralization done Group I TCP-F, II CaSP, III CPP-ACP remineralizing agents. analysis 72hrs, 7days, 14 days. data analyzed variance (ANOVA) and Post Hoc test. All showed significant difference baseline, post remineralization. TCP-F group maximum followed by CaSP groups. a reliable non-invasive caries detecting device measure early are proven possess properties.
