objective: tooth surface undergoes continuous remineralization and demineralization. the aim of this study was to compare the effect of caseinphosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (cpp-acp) paste and fluoride gel on the microhardness of demineralized enamel lesions.   methods: frothy eight specimens of premolar teeth were chosen and randomly divided to 4 groups of 12. after the initial mea...

the growing demand for enhanced esthetic appearance has led to great developments in bleaching products. the exposure of hard tissues of the tooth to bleaching agents can affect the roughness of the enamel surface. the freshly bleached enamel surface exposed to various surface treatments such as fluoride and other remineralizing agents have been assessed in this study. the aim of this experimen...

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 ...

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of various fluoride compounds and casein phosphopeptide/amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) on the reduction of erosive/abrasive tooth wear. METHODS Forty enamel samples were prepared from bovine lower incisors, stratified and allocated to 4 groups (1-4). Samples in group 1 remained untreated and served as negative controls. The test samples were treated ...

Objectives The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of dentin remineralization using proanthocyanidin (PA), fluoride varnish and casein phosphopeptide amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) paste and their various combinations on microhardness of demineralized root dentin. Materials and Methods One-hundred and twenty freshly extracted sound human premolars were selected and randomly di...

background: casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (cpp-acp) is applied for remineralization of early caries lesions or tooth sensitivity conditions and may affect subsequent resin bonding. this in vitro study investigated the effect of cpp-acp on the shear bond strength of dental adhesives to enamel. materials and methods: sixty extracted human molar teeth were selected and randomly...

statement of problem: the casein phospho peptide-amorphous calcium phosphate with or without fluoride (cpp-acpf and cpp-acp respectively) are of considerably new materials which are highly recommended for prevention of dental caries. however, there is a shortage in literature on how they affect the ion concentration of saliva or dental plaque. objectives: the aim of this study was to evaluate t...
