Other Ingredients: Ingredients like calcium lactate have been added to some gums to enhance enamel remineralization. On the other hand, some gums contain caffeine or vitamins, turning them into functional or energy-boosting products. The health implications of these ingredients vary and depend on indi...
Side Effects of Citric Acid Overexposure to citric acid can erode tooth enamel, which may lead to tooth decay. Mostly, this does not happen due to an overdose of citrus fruits. But, over intake of beverages containing citric acid can lead to such conditions. Sometimes, if many citrus fruits...
Although water sorption is thought to be the main destabilizer of the biomaterial–tooth bond, the actual interfacial degradation mechanisms are far from understood. The fundamental mechanism of bonding to enamel and dentin is essentially based on an exchange process, in which minerals removed from ...
react with alkaline leavening agents. The acid-base reaction produces carbon dioxide gas bubbles that cause baked goods to rise. One interesting quality is that vinegar can kill drug-resistant tuberculosis bacteria. Like other acids, vinegar can attack tooth enamel, leading to decay and sensitive ...
Lactose is a type of sugar that is found in milk and milk products, including human milk. Also called milk sugar, it is not found naturally in any other food. This sugar is made of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, and it has the chemical formula of C12H22O11 [1]. By the time they are...
1. A process for making a moldable, composition comprising a suspension of particles in a liquid, said process comprising: I. mixing together: (a) an inorganic filler comprising at least one hydroxylated group; (b) a polymerizable organic acid comprising a group having the formula ##STR6## ...
Fung is a fan of fluoride in toothpaste, but he recommends alternating between a fluoride and non-fluoride formula for patients who are cautious. Is natural toothpaste good for your teeth? If they contain the right ingredients, then yes. Dr. Fung says natural toothpaste can "fight cavities,...
enamel to be low so that the composition in an unpolymerised state flows over an etched tooth surface and into fissures whilst the viscosity should not be so low as to run off the tooth into the patient's mouth. The composition should also have a short setting time (provided that this ...
Therefore, it is ideal that these toothpastes have a high viscosity and maintain the pH in the range of 7 to 10 to prevent potential aggression in the enamel surface and consequently, increase the tooth sensitivity [35]. All experimental groups exhibited a significant color change when compared...
