The purpose of the study was to determine whether adding calcium lactate to chewing gum containing xylitol enhances remineralization of enamel surfaces using an early caries lesion model. Enamel slabs were cut from human extracted sound teeth and artificial subsurface lesions created within each. Half ...

The depth of the post space preparation was 10 mm, measured from the cementoenamel junction. The samples were randomly divided into two groups according to adhesive system used. Group A: Adhesive system without additives and Group B: Adhesive system containing 0.5%nanoparticles of silver (NAg). ...
Dental biomaterials are meant to replace dental tissues, such as enamel and dentine, in irreversibly diseased teeth. In previous works we performed goniometric measurements in order to evaluate the scattering anisotropy factor for these kinds of materials. In the present work we have used the IAD...
