Modification by Salivary Pellicles of in vitro Enamel Remineralization
R.T. Zahradnik
Forsyth Dental Center, 140 Fenway, Boston, Massachusetts 02115
The effectiveness of inorganic calcifying solutions to remineralize enamel with subsurface demineralization decreased with saliva pre-treatments conducive to the formation of enamel pellicles. Greater reductions in remineralization rates occurred with longer pellicle formation times. It is suggested that enamel pellicles may act to control surface deposition and favor subsurface precipitation.
