This study compared tooth's remineralization using enamel surface artificially demineralized with 0.1M lactate and HCL solution using Vicker's Hardness Number(VHN) to compare CPP-ACP and remineralization of nano-sized Carbonate Apatite's initial caries. Using pH circulation models divided into 0% nano-CA, 5% nano-CA, 10% nano-CA, 10% CPP-ACP and D.W. they were treated for 5 minutes, three times a day for 14 days to get the following results. 1. There were no significant differences among the initial surface hardness of samples demineralized surface of front tooth in 5 groups. and all 5 groups' surface hardness reduced significantly after demineralization of enamel. 2. When inquiring into hardness changes through pH circulation model, the highest hardness change was in 5% nano-CA group. Also. 10% nano-CA and 10% CPP-ACP groups increased significantly. but there was no significant difference statistically. In generalizing the above experiment results, nano-sized Carbonate Apatite showed remineralization, and compared to 10% CPP-ACP group, 5% nano-CA had remineralization to artificial caries. thus implies that when we develop method to contact with tooth of nano-CA in the future, it is expected to gain synergy effect on function of saliva, a natural remineralization material.

본 연구는 최근 새롭게 개발된 fTCP와 현재 치과임상에서 재광화 크림으로 널리 사용되고 있는 CPP-ACP의 재광화 효과를 비교하기 위하여 QLF-D를 이용하여 인공우식병소에서 fTCP와 CPP-ACP의 무기질소실 변화를 평가하고자 하였다. 실험에 사용된 우치시편은 탈회용액에 10일간 보관하여 인공우식병소를 형성하였고, 무작위로 두 군으로 분류하였다. 1군은 10% CPP-ACP가 포함된 Tooth Mousse 군이고, 2군은 fTCP가 포함된 Clinpro Tooth Creme군이다. 두 종류의 치아크림을 각각 탈회병소에 바르고 1주일간 인공타액에 침전 후 QLF-D를 이용하여 병소의 형광소실량(${\Delta}F$)을 평가하였다. QLF-D 분석결과 Tooth Mousse군은 처치 후에 ${\Delta}F$값과 ${\Delta}Fmax$값이 각각2.65, 6.63 증가하여 무기질 소실이 통계적으로 유의하게 감소(p<0.05)한 반면, Clinpro Tooth Creme군은 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었다. 또한 ${\Delta}Fmax$값에서는 처치 후 Tooth Mousse군이 Clinpro Tooth Creme군에 비해 통계적으로 유의하게 감소하였다(p<0.05). 그러므로 10% CPP-ACP가 포함된 Tooth Mousse는 fTCP가 포함된 Clinpro Tooth Creme보다 초기우식병소의 재광화 치료에 더욱 효과적이다.

Dental caries is a chronic disease that causes the destruction of tooth structure by the interaction of plaque bacteria, food debris, and saliva. There has been attempts to induce remineralization by supersaturating the Intra-oral environment around the surface enamel, where there is incipient caries. In this study, supersaturated remineralized solution "R" was applied to specimens with incipient enamel caries, and the quantitative analysis of remineralization was evaluated using microradiography. Thirty subjects volunteered to participate in this study. Removable appliances were constructed for the subjects, and the enamel specimen with incipient caries were embedded in the appliances. The subjects wore the intra-oral appliance for 15 days except while eating and sleeping. The removable appliance were soaked in supersaturated solution "R", saline, or Senstime$^{\circledR}$ to expose the specimen to those solutions three times a day, 5 minutes each time. After 15 days, microradiography was retaken to compare and evaluate remineralization The results were as the following: 1. The ratio of remineralized area to demineralized area was significantly higher in the supersaturated solution "R" and Senstime$^{\circledR}$ than in the saline (p<0.05) 2. Remineralization in the supersaturated buffer solution "R" occurred in the significantly deeper parts of the tooth. compared to the Senstime$^{\circledR}$ group containing high concentration or fluoride. (p<0.05) As in the above results, the remineralization effect of remineralized buffer solution "R" on incipient enamel caries has been proven. For clinical utilization, further studies on soft tissue reaction and the effect on dentin and cementum are necessary In conclusion compared to commercially available fluoride solution. remineralization solution“R”showed better remineralization effect on early enamel caries lesion, so it is considered as effecient solution for clinical application.

연구 목적은 시중 음료의 산성도를 조사하고 산성 음료가 유치 법랑질의 침식에 미치는 영향 및 침식된 법랑질에 대한 인공 타액과 불소의 재광화 효과를 연구하는 것이었다. 시중의 25 종류의 음료를 표집한 후 pH를 측정하였고, 표면미세경도측정법으로 유치 법랑질의 침식 및 재광화 실험을 시행하였다. 음료의 pH는 대부분의 음료가 pH 5.5이하였다. 산성 음료에 의한 유치 법랑질 표면미세경도의 감소율은 착향탄산음료의 경우 5분 후가 16.90%, 10분 후가 25.11%, 30분 후가 35.10%, 60분 후가 41.62%이었고, 재광화용액에 담갔을 때 표면미세경도의 회복률은 1시간 후에 61.52%, 24시간 후에 67.96%, 48시간 후에 72.13%, 72시간 후에 75.93%이었다. 결과는 시중 음료의 대부분이 산성 음료이며 치아침식증의 발생은 빠르게 일어나는 반면에 재광화는 상대적으로 느리게 일어난다는 것을 시사하고 있다.

본 연구는 카제인포스포펩타이드-아모르포우스칼슘포스포페이트(CPP-ACP)에 불소이온을 결합시킨 불화 카제인포스포펩타이드-아모르포우스칼슘포스페이트(CPP-ACFP)제제의 법랑질 재광화 정도를 알아보기 위한 실험으로 법랑질 표면에 산부식 시간을 달리한 후 CPP-ACFP제제를 같은 횟수로 도포했을 때의 재광화 정도와 CPP-ACFP제제의 도포 횟수가 법랑질의 재광화에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 건전한 치아 64개를 대상으로 미세경도측정, 주사전자현미경 관찰 실험을 하였다. 그 결과 산부식 시간이 길어질수록, CPP-ACFP제제의 도포 횟수를 증가시킬수록 법랑질의 재광화가 더 잘 일어나는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 그러므로 CPP-ACP에 불소이온을 결합시켜 치아에 무기질 공급과 불소도포를 한 번에 할 수 있는 CPP-ACFP제제는 법랑질 재광화 물질로 권장할 만하다고 하겠다.

Dental caries is the most common disease in the maxillofacial area. There are many factors contributing to its development, but complete understanding and prevention is not fully known. Since the structure of the coronal and root portion of the tooth is different, the remineralization and demineralization process is also known to be different. In this study, by using a partially saturated buffer solution, we created artificial enamel and dentin caries and evaluated mineral loss. A remineralization solution with four different degrees of saturation (degree of saturation ; group 1, 0.268, group 2, 0.309, group 3, 0.339, group 4, 0.390, PH 4.3, F-2ppm) was used on a demineralized specimen. The mineral precipitating quantity and depth was evaluated by using microradiography. Using an atomic force microscope (AFM), hydroxyapatite crystals of normal, demineralized, and remineralized enamel and dentin were evaluated. The results were as follows: 1. As the degree of saturation of the remineralizing solution increased, the mineral precipitation in the enamel was increased. In group 4, mineral precipitation was limited near the surface. 2. As the degree of saturation of the remineralizing solution increased, the mineral precipitation in the dentin was decreased and it occurred in a deeper portion. In group 4, however, mineral precipitation occurred on the surface and its quantity increased. 3. There was a statistically significant interaction between enamel and dentin mineral content changes on specimens treated with remineralization and demineralization solution (demineralization r=0.44, remineralization r=0.44, p<0.05). 4. Demineralized hydroxyapatite crystals showed central and peripheral dissolving and widening of intercrystal spaces under the AFM. 5. In dentin remineralization small crystal precipitation occurred between the large crystals. We conclude that by adjusting acidulated buffer solution's degree of saturation, we can control enamel and dentin remineralization. In addition, the AFM is highly useful in evaluating changes in remineralized and demineralized hydroxyapatite crystals.

Purpose: The aim of this in vitro study was to assess changes in remineralization by stimulated human saliva over a short period of 48 hours with quantitative light-induced fluorescence (QLF) technology. Materials and Methods: Bovine incisor surfaces were demineralized for 10 days. Two types of stimulated saliva were collected from 7 healthy persons. 24 hours after tooth brushing (Stimulated saliva group) and immediately after tooth brushing with 1,000 ppm NaF dentifrice (Dentifrice saliva group). The specimens were immersed in saliva and fluorescence images were obtained by QLF-digital (QLF-D $biluminator^{TM}$,) at 2, 4, 6, 12, 24, and 48 hours fluorescence loss (${\Delta}F%$) of the lesions. A paired t-test was performed to assess fluorescence differences between before (${\Delta}F_{baseline}$) and after (${\Delta}F_{treatment\;time}$) the remineralization process. Results: Before the remineralization, the mean ${\Delta}F_{baseline}$ of the initial demineralized specimens was $-18.42{\pm}0.15$ (%). In both groups, the ${\Delta}F$ values obtained at baseline and after 2 hours were statistically significant (P < 0.001), indicating recovery of the lesions by approximately 40% after 2 hours. After 48 hours, remineralization rates were slightly higher (49%) for the stimulated saliva group than for the dentifrice saliva group (41%), but the difference was not statistically significant. Conclusions: With QLF minute degrees of remineralization by saliva can be measured in periods as short as 2 hours. Additionally no significantly higher effects of remineralization were observed in the dentifrice saliva group when compared to the stimulated saliva group.
