Comparison of Efficacy of Different Fluoride Varnishes on Dentin Remineralisation during a critical pH Exposure Using Quantitative X-ray Microtomography

Abstract Objectives:: The objective of this in vitro study was to quantify the amount of mineral change in demineralized dentin at pH 5.5 after the application of dental varnishes containing fluoride with casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate, fluoride and bioglass, or fluoride alone. Methods and materials:: A total of 12 extracted human sound mandibular premolar root samples were coated with an acid-resistant varnish, leaving a 2 × 3 mm window at the outer root surface....
