The requirement for clinically effective treatments to remineralize early enamel caries lesions is dictated by the principles of minimally invasive dentistry. Numerous studies outlined the significance of treating early carious lesions with different remineralizing agents. This study aimed to evaluate and compare the remineralization potential of topical cream containing casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) and CPP-ACP with fluoride in remineralizing artificial carious lesions on enamel.

Methods: Ninety individuals with white spot lesions on their enamel who visited the orthodontic department for de-bonding were selected for the research. Patients were randomly assigned to three distinct groups with each group consisting of 30 patients.
The aim of this study is to review the potential of strontium-doped nanohydroxyapatite (SrnHAP) as a biomaterial for remineralizing early carious lesions. Publications from 2012 to 2022 were included based on the patient/population, intervention, comparison, and outcomes (PICO) framework, focusing on demineralized enamel treated with strontium-doped nanohydroxyapatite compared to other remineralizing agents, with the primary outcome being remineralization capacity. Electronic databases, namely, PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar, were explored from March 31, 2023, to April 10, 2023.

Aim: The aim of this study is to evaluate and compare the remineralization potential of a novel laboratory synthesized strontium-doped nanohydroxyapatite (SrnHAp) paste to a commercially available regular dentifrice.
Materials And Methods: Sixty enamel specimens (4 mm × 4 mm × 1 mm) were divided into two groups based on the type of dentifrice applied: Group I - regular toothpaste and Group II - SrnHAp paste.
