“…However, they came to the conclusion that even though Amflor and Enafix did not show statistically significant differences from the control group, they still work to prevent enamel demineralization and are also reasonably priced. 15 Results of our study are in accordance with studies conducted by Sharma S et al (2017) 16 , Kakkar S et al (2018) 15 , Tashmasbi S et al (2016) 17 and results of study by Thakur S et al (2015) 18 didn't coincide with our study.…”

Aim: To compare and evaluate using surface microhardness measurement, and surface roughness analysis in deciduous molars using GC Tooth Mousse Plus and Enafix. Material and methodology: A four-equal window acid resistant varnish was placed around the exposed enamel surface of forty removed deciduous molars before they were submerged in a demineralizing solution and remineralized for weeks using Tooth Mousse Plus and Enafix. Statistical Analysis Used: One Way ANOVA and Post Hoc Turkey test (P<0.05) were used Results: Following 4 weeks of remineralization, all specimens underwent SEM analysis and revealed indications of thickening of their inter-rod material. Tooth Mousse Plus also revealed pronounced remineralization evidence. Enafix demonstrated greater resistance to breakdown during the last acid exposure. Surface micro hardness (SMH) and surface roughness (Ra) both showed comparable results, with a noticeable decrease in roughness values and an increase in microhardness values, while Enafix showed a greater source of remineralization and Tooth Mousse Plus showed a greater resistance to the final acid challenge. Conclusion: Enafix has demonstrated superior resistance to the final acid trial, whereas superior remineralization property was seen in GC Tooth Mousse Plus.

“…On the basis of prior research, the pH of demineralizing solutions differed from 3.5–5, and the extent of immersion in the solution ranged from 2 hours to 21 days. [ 7 ] To generate white spot lesions, in the current research the specimens were subjected to immersion in a demineralizing solution at 4.5 pH for fourteen days.…”

Aim: The aim of the current research was to assess the effectiveness of different remineralizing substances on artificial white spot lesions on deciduous teeth. Materials and Methods: 45 deciduous teeth without dental caries constituted the study group for this in vitro research. A 3 mm by 3 mm window of enamel was uncovered at the occluso-gingival midpoint of the coronal labial surface; an acid-resistant nail varnish was coated alongside the uncovered enamel surface of all specimens, employing vertical strokes. Demineralization was executed for the tenure of 72 hours at 37°C temperature in an incubator. The forty-five specimens, fifteen in each group, were assigned to the investigational groups plus a control group as: Group A: Control, Group B: Calcium sucrose phosphate (CaSP), Group C: Casein phosphopeptide–amorphous calcium phosphate–fluoride (CPP-ACPF). Microhardness tester was employed for testing the microhardness of the enamel surface using a Vickers diamond indenter laden with twenty-five milligrams for approximately ten seconds. Vickers hardness number (VHN) calculations for the microhardness were performed at baseline and on the fourteenth day. Results: The CPP-ACPF group exhibited greater mean microhardness value at 236.14 ± 2.12, in pursuit by CaSP group with a score of 231.98 ± 3.16 and then the control group at 220.22 ± 5.08. An extremely statistically significant difference was seen amid the groups. Conclusion: The current research arrived at a conclusion that both the remineralizing substances were certainly efficient in handling early dental caries, and additionally, casein phosphopeptide–amorphous calcium phosphate–fluoride (CPP-ACPF) was found highly efficient as a remineralizing substance, in pursuit by calcium sucrose phosphate (CaSP).

“…The baseline values of all groups were recorded. Samples were immersed in three glass containers with 12 ml of demineralizing solution according to each group for 9 days at room temperature (approximate 25°C) [12] to induce artificial caries-like lesion. The demineralizing solution had the following composition: CaCl 2 = 2.2 mM, NaH 2 PO 4 = 2.2 mM, lactic acid = 0.05 M, and fluoride = 0.…”

AIM: This study evaluated the impact of two remineralizing agents containing casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) and tricalcium phosphate (TCP) on white spot lesions. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 90 freshly extracted upper premolars were divided in three equal groups (30 each): Group A: Control group, Group B: Varnish containing CPP-ACP, and Group C: Varnish containing TCP. The teeth were subjected to Diagnodent test after inducing white spot lesions to assess any surface changes present on the teeth. The readings were repeated post-demineralization and post-remineralization. RESULTS: Statistically significant difference was present in the mean values between the tested groups. CPP-ACP group recorded higher mean value at demineralization when compared to TCP group. Statistically significant difference (p < 0.00`01) was present between the baseline and the demineralization values. CPP-ACP group presented higher remineralization results when compared to TCP group. T-test proved a significant difference between the tested groups. CONCLUSION: CPP-ACP containing varnish had higher remineralizing effect when compared to TCP containing varnish. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Recently, the focus of restorative dentistry has been directed toward a conservative approach. Prevention and non-restorative treatment of initial enamel caries is the main concern. Remineralization procedures are the most preferred way of regeneration of lost tooth structure.
