  2. Remineralisation of teeth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remineralisation_of_teeth

    Demineralization is caused by bacteria excreting acids as a product of their metabolism of carbohydrates. By reducing the intake frequency of carbohydrates in an individual's diet, remineralization is increased and demineralization is decreased. Diet control is an important aspect in promoting remineralization to occur naturally.

  3. Ion-exchange resin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ion-exchange_resin

    Ion-exchange resin beads. An ion-exchange resin or ion-exchange polymer is a resin or polymer that acts as a medium for ion exchange, that is also known as an ionex. [1] It is an insoluble matrix (or support structure) normally in the form of small (0.25–1.43 mm radius) microbeads, usually white or yellowish, fabricated from an organic polymer substrate.

  4. Demineralization (physiology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demineralization_(physiology)

    Demineralization is the opposite process of mineralization; it is a process of reduction in the mineral content in tissue or an organism. Examples include bone demineralization or tooth demineralization. Demineralization can lead to serious diseases such as osteoporosis, rickets, or tooth decay. [1]

  6. Glass ionomer cement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass_ionomer_cement

    Glass ionomer sealants are thought to prevent caries through a steady fluoride release over a prolonged period and the fissures are more resistant to demineralization, even after the visible loss of sealant material, [9] however, a systemic review found no difference in caries development when GICs was used as a fissure sealing material ...

  7. Purified water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purified_water

    Large cation/anion ion exchangers used in demineralization of boiler feedwater. [3] Deionized water (DI water, DIW or de-ionized water), often synonymous with demineralized water / DM water, [4] is water that has had almost all of its mineral ions removed, such as cations like sodium, calcium, iron, and copper, and anions such as chloride and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_plaque

    Dental plaque is a biofilm that attaches to tooth surfaces, restorations and prosthetic appliances (including dentures and bridges) if left undisturbed.Understanding the formation, composition and characteristics of plaque helps in its control. [6]

  9. Chemical cartridge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_cartridge

    Cartridges AX, SX, and NO not distinguish on the sorption capacity (as in the US) when they are classified and certified. If the cartridge is designed to protect from several different types of harmful gases, the label will list all designations in order. For example: A2B1, color - brown and grey.
