3. Remineralisation of teeth - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remineralisation_of_teeth

   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 and function within tooth structure.

4. Tooth regeneration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tooth_regeneration

   A set of human teeth under an orthopantomogram. Tooth regeneration is a stem cell based regenerative medicine procedure in the field of tissue engineering and stem cell biology to replace damaged or lost teeth by regrowing them from autologous stem cells.

5. 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.

   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.

7. Regenerative endodontics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regenerative_endodontics

   A tooth needs a supplemental 3 years after eruption to complete the root formation and mark the end of tooth development. Early loss of young immature permanent teeth can be detrimental, leading to loss of function and interference of phonetics. Maxillary and mandibular bone development may be altered, especially when the patient is still growing.

8. Atraumatic restorative treatment - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atraumatic_restorative...

   Atraumatic restorative treatment (ART) [1] is a method for cleaning out tooth decay (dental caries) from teeth using only hand instruments (dental hatchet and spoon-excavator) and placing a filling. It does not use rotary dental instruments ( dental drills ) to prepare the tooth and can be performed in settings with no access to dental equipment.

9. Dental restoration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dental_restoration

   Dental restoration, dental fillings, or simply fillings are treatments used to restore the function, integrity, and morphology of missing tooth structure resulting from caries or external trauma as well as the replacement of such structure supported by dental implants. [1]
