Biomimetic Remineralization of Completely Demineralized Dentine Using Nanocomplexes of Carboxymethyl Chitosan/amorphous Calcium Phosphate comments

by Xu Zhang
Currently, it is still a tough task for dentists to remineralize dentine in deep caries. The aim of this study was to remineralize human completely demineralized dentine using nanocomplexes of carboxymethyl chitosan amorphous calcium phosphate CMC ACP based on mimicking the stabilizing effect of dentine matrix protein 1 DMP1 on ACP in the biomineralization of dentine...
