Abstract: The study is about evaluating the effects of three remineralising agents i.e. Casein Phosphopeptide – Amorphous Calcium Phosphate [CPP-ACP], Sodium fluoride varnish and Tricalcium phosphate (TCP) on dentin. The objective of this study is to see which remineralising agents have a better effect on dentin. In this study, thirty freshly extracted human central incisors are selected with exposed dentin. The labial surfaces of each tooth are divided into four quadrants and treated with the following agents. They are as follows:- Part A is used as a Control unit, Part B is applied with Tricalcium phosphate (TCP), Part C is applied with Casein Phosphopeptide – Amorphous Calcium Phosphate [CPP-ACP] and Part D is applied with Sodium fluoride varnish. Then the teeth will be examined under the microscope and evaluated accordingly. The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of three remineralising agents i.e. Casein Phosphopeptide – Amorphous Calcium Phosphate [CPP-ACP], Sodium fluoride varnish and Tricalcium phosphate (TCP) on dentin and layering a new coat of tooth surface on attrited surface.
Keywords: Casein Phosphopeptide – Amorphous Calcium Phosphate, Sodium fluoride varnish, Remineralisation, Tricalcium phosphate.
