“…39 Al-Rawi et al, (2009) pointed to the fact that 0.05% NaF was superior in its effect regarding remineralization compared to Zamzam Water and this is confirming the results in this study. 23 Zamzam Water group as a second priority that came after Varnish in terms of remineralization to prevent enamel erosion in primary dentition and this is evident in the mean values which were remarkable since Zamzam water is multi-element water40. Calcium, phosphate and fluoride are components of interest.…”

Background:The objective of the current study was to evaluate the erosive adverse effect of paediatric Iron plus syrup and the remineralization effectualness of Zamzam Water and ProShield R Varnish on microhardness of primary teeth. Materials and method: Forty primary anterior teeth were randomly distributed into five groups, each group has eight samples (N=8) assigned as: group1: control negative, group2: control positive, group3: 5% Sodium Fluoride Varnish, group4: Zamzam water and group5: Zamzam water and 5% Sodium Fluoride Varnish. Excluding the control negative group from them, all samples were immersed in 100ml of Iron plus syrup and agitated for 2 min once a day for 14 days. Then those groups were treated with remineralizing agents of: 5% Sodium Fluoride Varnish for 24 hours, Zamzam water for 30 min every 12 h for 12 days and the combination therapy initiated by Zamzam water then after 30 min, 5% Sodium Fluoride Varnish was applied for 24hrs. Vickers Microhardness test and Polarized Light Microscope were two adopted tests that this study dependent upon. Results: There was a statistically significant difference in microhardness mean values when making a comparison between the baseline and Iron plus tested groups, furthermore ANOVA and Duncan's Multiple Range test showed that there was a highly significant statistical difference in microhardness mean values among baseline, demineralization and remineralization groups at P-Value ≤ 0.01. Conclusion: The surface microhardness of the primary enamel was reduced owing to the potential erosive efficacy of the used paediatric pharmaceutical preparations. On the other extreme, the previous readings had increased after being treated with remineralizing agents meaning that they have the capacity to battle against erosive potential reaching its highest capability in terms of reminerlization with the combination treatment group.

“…22 When it comes to remineralizing initial carious lesions in permanent teeth, Zamzam water is just as effective as sodium fluoride 0.05%. 23,24 Consequently, dental enamel's microhardness was raised. 25 Zamzam Water has a high content of bicarbonates, which is an essential element in saliva that helps to balance out the pH of the mouth.…”

“…Dental caries is one of the most common oral health issues, resulting in tooth demineralization caused by organic acids produced by biofilm bacteria from the metabolism of dietary fermentable carbohydrates, primarily sugars. The increase of resistance of teeth to acid attack can be achieved by fluoride that gives hardness and durability to the tooth enamel and protect against caries (1) .…”

Background: Dental enamel was treated with laser irradiation and fluoride compounds as a method to enhance fluoride absorption by the enamel, which resulted in a rise in the mineral content of the enamel and a significant boost in its resistance to acid demineralization. Objective: The purpose of this research was to look into the effects of Titanium tetra Fluoride (TiF4) with or without diode laser on the demineralized enamel. Material and methods:The sample consisted of 65 premolars teeth: 5 teeth remained sound for energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) analysis where 60 teeth were divided into 6 groups by treatment (N=10): (1) control negative (deionized water), (2) control positive (acidulated phosphate fluoride gel (APF)), (3) 6% Titanium tetra fluoride (TiF4) solution, (4) diode laser (810 nm, 0.5W, 60 s), (5) Laser then TiF4, and (6) Tif4 then Laser. Microhardness was measured before and after demineralization then after treatments. Five samples from each group were selected randomly for EDS analysis. Results: Microhardness increased significantly after all treatments (p<0.05). Results revealed a significant difference for all treatment groups (p<0.05). EDS analysis revealed that fluoride content was greater in 6%TIF4 then Tif4 with Laser groups, while the calcium content was greater in control positive followed by TiF4 groups. Conclusion: TiF4 alone or in combination with laser enhancing demineralized enamel microhardness and fluoride content. Diode laser before or after TiF4 had minimal extra impact on remineralization.

Zamzam water is well documented for plenty of medicinal value for curing illness. In the present study, the effects of perinatal consumption of Zamzam and normal drinking water by the pregnant mice on their offspring's physical parameters, early sensory motor reflexes, locomotor activities, acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity in the homogenize brain tissue and blood parameters were compared. To achieve that; Zamzam water was given to female Swiss-Webster strain mice as the only source of drinking fluid and the control animals were administered plain tap water. Treatment started from the first day of pregnancy and continued until the postnatal day fifteen of delivery. All offspring were subjected to various tests. The rate of body weight gain remained relatively unaffected until the second week of weaning period, however; in the last week the offspring exposed to Zamzam water gained significant body weight as compared to their control offspring. Furthermore, the opening of eyes and appearance of body hairs in Zamzam exposed pups remained unaffected as compared to the controls. The sensory motor reflexes in Zamzam exposed pups after birth and during the first two weeks of weaning period were significantly increased. Locomotor Activity Test performed in the male and female offspring after weaning period showed a significant decrease in the male and increase in the female on most of the elements of this test due to Zamzam exposure. AChE activity in the homogenized brain tissue and blood parameters were unaffected as compared to the controls, the present Zamzam effects in the offspring are possibly via in utero action and/or via mother's milk.
