Novel amelogenin-releasing hydrogel for remineralization of enamel artificial caries

Remineralization of artificial enamel lesions by theobromine.

OBJECTIVE This study investigated the remineralization potential of theobromine in comparison to a standard NaF dentifrice. METHODS Three tooth blocks were produced from each of 30 teeth. Caries-like lesion was created on each block using acidified gel. A smaller block was cut from each block for baseline scanning electron microscopy imaging and electron-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) analysis...

Remineralization Potential of Three Tooth Pastes on Enamel Caries

BACKGROUND Different formulations of dentifrices exist in the market. Usually, single toothpaste is used by all family members including children. There is a big concern of fluoride ingestion with the toothpaste containing high fluoride content in children. Recently, new toothpaste (including toothpaste) with remineralization potential without fluoride content has been formulated. AIM There i...

Reminova and EAER: Keeping Enamel Whole through Caries Remineralization.

This article aims to outline the early development of a King's College London dental spinout company, Reminova, formed to commercialize a novel clinical method of caries remineralization: electrically accelerated and enhanced remineralization (EAER). This method is being developed to address the unmet clinical need identified by modern caries management strategies to keep enamel "whole" through...

Enamel remineralization: controlling the caries disease or treating early caries lesions?

The emphasis currently given to new technologies for enamel remineralization suggests that the changes in the understanding of the dental caries disease, which occurred in the last century, were either not yet adopted or were forgotten. Just like in the past, when the disease was "treated" by restoring cavities, there is presently a misunderstanding on the concept of incipient lesion reminerali...
