Effects of CPP-ACP with sodium fluoride on inhibition of bovine enamel demineralization: A quantitative assessment using micro-computed tomography.

J Dent. 2011 Mar 29; Hamba H, Nikaido T, Inoue G, Sadr A, Tagami J OBJECTIVES: The present study evaluated the effects of casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) and CPP-ACP with 900ppm fluoride (CPP-ACPF) pastes on inhibition of enamel demineralization over time, using polychromatic micro-computed tomography (micro-CT). METHODS: Enamel blocks were prepared from bovine teeth. … Continue reading »
