Emerging Methods in Prevention of Dental Caries

  1. Does the partitioning of calcium from phosphate and fluoride in toothpastes increase the remineralization of demineralized enamel or dentin, or increase the resistance to demineralization of these tissues to a greater extent than a non-partitioned toothpaste containing the same ingredients at similar concentrations?
  2. Is lased enamel or dentin more or less susceptible to demineralization compared to non-lased enamel and dentin?
  3. Do fluoride releasing dental materials increase the remineralization of demineralized (carious) human enamel or dentin, or increase the resistance to demineralization (caries) of these tissues?
  4. Can bone morphogenic proteins, in particular BMP-7 (Op-1), be used to stimulate pulpal cells to produce new dentin (i.e. tubular dentin) in human, animal or in vitro studies?
