The aims of the study were to characterize enamel, dentine and cementum surface aspect after using non-fluoride remineralization toothpastes containing calcium carbonate and calcium glycerophosphate by SEM evaluation, to determine chemical composition of enamel, dentin and cement after remineralization products application by EDX assessment, and to compare the remineralization capacity of the tested products. Ten extracted teeth having no dental caries, erosive or wear lesions were selected for the study. The teeth were split bucco-lingually and mesio-distally in four pieces. A free window of enamel, dentine, and cementum (4X4 mm) in the cervical area of the slices was preserved. In control group the slices were subjected to a artificial caries lesion formation. In study groups EcoBio� (President Company), Bio-natural (Dentissimo, Swiss Biodent), and Arthrodont Cassic (Pierre Fabre Oral Care) toothpastes were applied two times a day, for 3 minutes during caries lesion formation. The surface topography has been analyzed using a scanning electron microscope and the quantitative and qualitative chemical composition has been evaluated using an EDX detector. Interprismatic and intraprismatic mineral loss is clearly visible at higher magnification in enamel samples in control group. Some areas of demineralization are still present, and also small areas of extern deposits are visible on enamel, dentine and cementum samples in the groups were tested products were applied. All the tested toothpastes increased calcium and phosphorous ion concentrations in enamel, dentine and cementum. The highest remineralization effect was recorded in enamel by Dentissiomo, followed by Arthrodent and EcoBio toothpastes. In dentine and cementum the highest remineralization effect was registered by Arthrodent, followed by Dentissiomo and EcoBio toothpastes.

Since in vitro pH-cycling models are widely used to study dental caries, they should allow evaluations of fluoride effect on early stages of caries development. Therefore, acid etching on enamel surface must be avoided, enabling surface microhardness (SMH) analysis. In the present study, the pH-cycling model originally described by Featherstone et al.9 (1986) was modified to preserve the enamel surface and to produce early carious lesions that could be evaluated using SMH and cross-sectional microhardness (CSMH) measurements. In order to validate this modified model, a dose-response evaluation with fluoride was made. Human enamel blocks with known SMH were submitted to such regimen with the following treatments: distilled deionized water (DDW; control) and solutions containing 70, 140 and 280 ppm F. Data from %SMH change and deltaZ (mineral loss) showed a statistically significant negative correlation between F concentration in treatment solutions and mineral loss. In conclusion, the modified pH-cycling model allowed the evaluation of changes on the outermost enamel layer during caries development, and a dose-response effect of fluoride reducing enamel demineralization was observed.

Introduction: Calcium release from the enamel surface is known as enamel demineralisation. Enamel demineralisation is a chemical process of mineral loss from the email structure. One of the factors that cause demineralisation is the presence of acids derived from food or beverages consumed. This study was aimed to determine the effects of soft drinks and the amount of calcium release from the enamel surface. Methods: This study was an in-vitro experimental. The population was extracted maxillary premolars from orthodontics clinics in health centres, hospitals, and private clinics throughout Bandung and Jakarta. As many as 20 crown of maxillary premolars divided into two groups. Dissolved calcium was measured using the Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS). Data obtained was tested using an independent t-test. Results: The results showed that the amount of calcium released after exposure of soft drink was higher than soda water. The average amount of calcium released after soft drink exposure was 4122 ppm and soda water was 3492 ppm. Conclusion: Soft drink affects the calcium release from the enamel surface.

The anti-erosion effect of fluoride on the enamel surface was investigated by ATR-FTIR, SEM and EDX techniques. Four extracted teeth (two incisors and two premolars) were initially bleached with carabamide peroxide and etched with ortho-phosphoric acid then fluoride treatment was applied. Significant differences in enamel composition and morphology were observed providing the effect of fluoride application in remineralization of teeth. Infrared spectroscopy was employed to probe the changes in enamel structure. Scanning electron microscopy/energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analysis revealed higher content in F of teeth enamel. Morphology changes revealed a re-mineralization of enamel surface after the treatment with fluoride gel.

Swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) shows potential for the in vivo quantitative evaluation of micro-structural enamel surface phenomena occurring during early erosive demineralization. This randomized controlled single-blind cross-over clinical study aimed to evaluate the use of SS-OCT for detecting optical changes in the enamel of 30 healthy volunteers subjected to orange juice rinsing (erosive challenge) in comparison to mineral water rinsing (control), according to wiped and non-wiped enamel surface states. Participants were randomly allocated to 60 min of orange juice rinsing (pH 3.8) followed by 60 min of water rinsing (pH 6.7) and vice versa, with a 2-week wash-out period. In addition, the labial surfaces of the right or left maxillary incisors were wiped prior to SS-OCT imaging. An automated ImageJ algorithm was designed to analyse the back-scattered OCT signal intensity (D) after orange juice rinsing compared to after water rinsing. D was quantified as the OCT signal scattering from the 33 µm sub-surface enamel, normalised by the total OCT signal intensity entering the enamel. The back-scattered OCT signal intensity increased by 3.1% (95% CI 1.1-5.1%) in the wiped incisors and by 3.5% (95% CI 1.5-5.5%) in the unwiped incisors (p < 0.0001). Wiping reduced the back-scattered OCT signal intensity by 1.7% (95% CI -3.2 to -0.3%; p = 0.02) in comparison to the unwiped enamel surfaces for both rinsing solutions (p = 0.2). SS-OCT detected OCT signal changes in the superficial sub-surface enamel of maxillary central incisor teeth of healthy volunteers after orange juice rinsing.

The electron microprobe was used to analyze the calcium and phosphorus concentrations of sound, acid-etched, and remineralized enamel. By use of a weak acetic acid-potassium acetate buffer, it was found that the demineralization probably affected only the first 10 micrometers of the enamel surface. This demineralized enamel was successfully remineralized by the use of a calcifying solution. The changes in calcium and phosphorus concentrations and the Ca/P ratios were determined.
