Remineralization Potential of a Novel Silver Nanoparticle Rinse on Severely Demineralized Enamel In-vitro: A 14-Day Trial
Author(s): Callister C, Callister M, Nolan M and Nolan R*
Although fluoride-based remineralization systems have dominated prevention for the last century, new and innovative approaches are changing the preventative landscape in dental medicine. With the advent of nanotechnology, a wealth of new materials has become available to aid in remineralizing high risk tooth surfaces. While respecting traditional approaches, utilizing silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) for remineralization has unexplored potential for use via novel mechanisms for rehardening enamel surfaces. It was the purpose of this study to examine the remineralization potential of a novel rinse containing silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) on severely demineralized enamel in vitro. .. View more»
