Evaluation of Remineralizing Potential of CPP-ACP, CPP-ACP + F and β TCP + F and Their Effect on Microhardness of Enamel Using Vickers Microhardness Test: An Study.

Context: The change in understanding of dental caries which is now believed to be a reversible lesion has led to the change in its management.

Aim: To evaluate the remineralizing potential of three remineralizing agents [casein phosphopeptide (CPP)-amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP), CPP-ACP + F, and beta-tricalcium phosphate (β TCP) + F] and their effect on microhardness of enamel using Vickers microhardness test.

Materials And Method: Forty freshly extracted premolars, extracted for orthodontic purpose were collected and specimen prepared.
