Background/Aim. Dental varnishes are effective in preventing caries children. This study aims to compare the effect of containing fluoride and casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate on microhardness roughness three specific restorative materials pediatric dental practice. Methods. The included 60 discs bars, made from commonly used materials. After preparation incubation, subsequent ...

objective: amorphous calcium phosphate (acp) is a reactive solution capable of releasing calcium and phosphate ions, conversion to apatite and remineralization of mineral tooth structure. this study reviews acp structure, its properties and its applications in dentistry.   methods: in this review study, keywords including “amorphous calcium phosphate”, “mineralization”, “hydroxyapatite”, “casei...

background: despite widespread clinical uses of resin-modifi ed glass-ionomers (rmgis), their sealing ability is still a concern. this study evaluated the effect of delayed light activation (dla) of rmgi on marginal sealing in differently pretreated cavities. materials and methods: in this in vitro study, two standardized class v cavities were prepared on the buccal and lingual surfaces of 56 s...

Milk caseins stabilize calcium and phosphate ions and make them available to the neonate. Tryptic digestion of the caseins yields phosphopeptides from their polar N-terminal regions that contain clusters of phosphorylated seryl residues. These phosphoseryl clusters have been hypothesized to be responsible for the interaction between the caseins and calcium phosphate that lead to the formation o...

background and aims. the aim was to evaluate the effect of casein phosphopeptide–amorphous calcium phosphate (cpp-acp) on microtensile bond strength (µtbs) to carious affected dentin (cad) using etch-and-rinse and self-etch adhesive systems. materials and methods. the occlusal surface of 32 human molars with moderate occlusal caries was removed. infected dentin was removed until reaching cad an...

background:dental caries is associated with oral pathogenes and streptococcus mutans (s. mutans)is one of the primary cariogenic organisms. the aim of this clinical study was to evaluate the effect of sugar free chewing gum containing casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate(cpp-acp) and xylitol on salivary streptococcus mutan.   m aterials and methods: 60 dental students, who voluntee...

Casein phosphopeptides-amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) is a bioactive agent with a base of milk products, which has been formulated from two parts: casein phosphopeptides (CPP) and amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP). CPP was produced from milk protein casein and has a remarkable ability to stabilize calcium phosphate in solution and to substantially increase the level of calcium phosphate ...

  Objective: Amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) is a reactive solution capable of releasing calcium and phosphate ions, conversion to apatite and remineralization of mineral tooth structure. This study reviews ACP structure, its properties and its applications in dentistry.   Methods: In this review study, keywords including “amorphous calcium phosphate”, “mineralization”, “hydroxyapatite”, “cas...

objectives: this study aimed to assess the effect of applying casein phosphopeptide–amorphous calcium phosphate (cpp-acp) paste, casein phosphopeptide–amorphous calcium phosphate fluoride (cpp-acpf) paste and sodium fluoride gel on surface microhardness of enamel after microabrasion. materials and methods: thirty freshly extracted human premolars were selected. all samples were subjected to har...
