  2. Fluoride therapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluoride_therapy

    The fluoride ions reduce the rate of tooth enamel demineralization and increase the rate of remineralization of teeth at the early stages of cavities. Fluoride exerts these effects by the demineralization and remineralization cycle. [23] The remineralization cycle, critical to decay prevention, occurs when fluoride is present in the oral cavity.

  3. Silver diammine fluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver_diammine_fluoride

    Silver diammine fluoride (SDF), also known as silver diamine fluoride in most of the dental literature (although this is a chemical misnomer), is a topical medication used to treat and prevent dental caries (tooth decay) and relieve dentinal hypersensitivity. [1]

  4. Remineralisation of teeth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remineralisation_of_teeth

    Remineralization is a natural process and does not have to involve fluoride. Tooth remineralization is the natural repair process for non-cavitated tooth lesions, [1] [2] in which calcium, phosphate and sometimes fluoride ions are deposited into crystal voids in demineralised enamel. Remineralization can contribute towards restoring strength ...

  5. Fluoride varnish - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluoride_varnish

    Fluoride varnish is a highly concentrated form of fluoride that is applied to the tooth's surface by a dentist, dental hygienist or other dental professional, as a type of topical fluoride therapy. [1] It is not a permanent varnish but due to its adherent nature it is able to stay in contact with the tooth surface for several hours.

  6. Oligopeptide P11-4 - Wikipedia

    Through the remineralization caries activity is significantly reduced in comparison with a fluoride treatment alone. [7] In aqueous oral care gels the peptide is present as matrix. It binds directly as matrix to the tooth mineral and forms a stable layer on the teeth. [8] This layer does protect the teeth from acid attacks.

    These appliances can be used to achieve expansion in the maxillary arch; there are devices for mandibular expansion or lower expansion too. In past many years, different types of appliances have been made. These types are: tissue-borne, tooth-borne, slow maxillary expansion, rapid maxillary expansion, and bone-anchored.

    “It helps prevent the cavity causing bacteria from producing acid, which in turn reduces the risk of cavities,” she says. “The ingredient can be found in many products these days, like ...

  9. Oral hygiene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oral_hygiene

    A 1930s poster from the Work Projects Administration promoting oral hygiene. Tooth decay is the most common global disease. [14] Over 80% of cavities occur inside fissures in teeth where brushing cannot reach food left trapped after eating and saliva and fluoride have no access to neutralize acid and remineralize demineralized teeth, unlike easy-to-clean parts of the tooth, where fewer ...
