Dental caries is a disease of dental hard tissues, characterized initially by the decalcification of the inorganic portions of the tooth. Various treatment modalities have been implemented since long time to prevent this disease. Remineralizing agents are part of a new era of dentistry aimed at controlling the demineralization/ remineralization cycle, depending upon the microenvironment around the tooth.The rationale of these agents is the remineralization of early carious and non-carious white lesions, advocating a biological or therapeutic approach rather than the traditional surgical approach. This book gives a detailed account of current trends & updates regarding various remineralizing agents used in dentistry.
