Non-Fluoridated Remineralization Agents in Dentistry
نویسنده
چکیده
Managing non cavitated dental carious lesions non-invasively through remineralisation agents is a main goal and attempt to prevent further carious progression, and to improve and maintain the form and function of the teeth and oral cavity. The application of remineralisation agents to the non cavitated lesions has led to the development of novel technologies to arrest the further carious progression and prevent the decalcification process. This paper discusses the various non-fluoridated remineralisation agents available and their mode of action to preserve the functional integrity of the tooth structure.

The pre- and posteruptive effects of fluoride in the caries decline.
The widespread availability of fluoride from many sources is accepted as a major reason for the caries decline among children in developed countries. There is still controversy, however, about its principal mode of action. This article reviews the evidence on fluoride's preeruptive and posteruptive effects, and suggests reasons for its continuing role in the caries decline. Early fluoridation s...
متن کاملEffect of Casein Phosphopeptide-amorphous Calcium Phosphate and Calcium Sodium Phosphosilicate on Artificial Carious Lesions: An in vitro Study
Aim To compare new remineralizing agents calcium sodium phosphosilicate paste and casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) paste with that of fluoridated toothpaste in remineralization of early carious lesions using scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray (SEM-EDX) analysis. Materials and methods Sixty sound extracted premolars were collected and placed in ...
متن کاملImpact of an Anticaries Mouthrinse on In Vitro Remineralization and Microbial Control
Objective. The objective of this research was to evaluate the caries control potential of a new fluoride mouthrinse that also contained antimicrobial agents and a biofilm disrupting agent using different in vitro models. Methods. Four in vitro studies were conducted to assess the performance of this three pronged approach to caries control: (1) traditional enamel fluoride uptake, (2) surface mi...

INTRODUCTION This article illustrates a new treatment approach and evaluates the effect of use of fluoridated toothpaste on the remineralization of white spot lesions (WSLs) diagnosed at debonding. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-one orthodontic patients (mean age: 19.6 years), with a minimum of four WSLs on the buccal surfaces of the maxillary and mandibular incisors, canines, premolars and fir...
متن کاملVisual evaluation of in vitro cariostatic effect of restorative materials associated with dentifrices.
This study evaluated in vitro the cariostatic effect of 6 restorative materials with and without fluoride release (Fuji II LC, F-2000, Degufil Mineral, Sure Fil and Z-250) associated with a fluoridated and a non-fluoridated dentifrice (Sensodyne Original Formula and Sensodyne Sodium Bicarbonate), on human enamel. Class V-like cavities were prepared on 240 enamel slabs, assigned to 12 groups (6 ...
