2. 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.

3. Topical fluoride - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topical_fluoride

   Topical fluorides are fluoride-containing drugs indicated in prevention and treatment of dental caries, particularly in children's primary dentitions. [1] The dental-protecting property of topical fluoride can be attributed to multiple mechanisms of action, including the promotion of remineralization of decalcified enamel, the inhibition of the cariogenic microbial metabolism in dental plaque ...

4. Fluoride varnish - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluoride_varnish

   Fluoride varnish was a higher concentration than the foam and gel. There was not a significant difference in the amount of remineralization between gels, foams, and varnish. A study with a larger sample size and a longer time frame could show differing results. [20] They can be applied easily and quickly

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.

   Well, it’s risky. Most ingredients that humans use in homemade toothpaste can’t be used in dogs. Remember, dogs swallow their toothpaste, not spit – meaning whatever their toothpaste is made ...

7. Tooth decay - Wikipedia

   [23] [25] If left in contact with the tooth, these acids may cause demineralization, which is the dissolution of its mineral content. The process is dynamic, however, as remineralization can also occur if the acid is neutralized by saliva or mouthwash. Fluoride toothpaste or dental varnish may aid remineralization. [31]
