Remineralizing efficacy of different calcium-phosphate and fluoride based delivery vehicles on artificial caries like enamel lesions

Conclusions Remineralizing agents containing different calcium-phosphate formulas and fluoride have increased remineralization potential compared to artificial saliva. Clinpro™ varnish presented the highest remineralization tendency with greatest resistance for acid challenge. Clinical significance This in vitro study imitated the application of different calcium phosphorous and fluoride based delivery vehicles to enamel tooth surfaces in the mouth.

Male Sprague?Dawley rats were divided into the following five groups based on the magnitude of orthodontic force applied and administration of analgesics: control; 20 g; 40 g; 80 g; and morphine + 40 g.
