| STUDY |
ACP releases Ca & phosphate ions, which can form hydroxyapatite found in teeth & bones. Author says they’ve tested the material in vitro as a REMINERALIZING SEALANT for ARTIFICIALLY induced CAVITIES in BOVINE tooth ena mel & have observed the growth of new mineral. Demineralization of teeth leads to cavities. ACP will not cause a tooth to regenerate itself complete ly. It’s designed to REMINERALIZE SMALL CAVITIES. |
| FORMULATION |
- Amorphous Calcium Phosphate - Bioactive Photocurable Polymer. Polymer could be biostable or biodegra dable. |

| USES |
Orthodontic Adhesive: One of the problems with orthodontics in children’s mouths is the deminera lization that tends to occur around teeth encumbered by braces. A adhesive material that could remineralize the tooth, or > prevent demineralization, could offer a distinct advantage Remineralizing liner in dental fillings: Especially to protect against sec. Cavities that can form under or next to conventional fillings. Sec. decay, by one estimate accounts for > half of fil lings installed by dentists |
