In this paper the in vitro remineralization of human dentine with 0, 0.5, 2 and 10 ppm F in the remineralization solution is presented and analyzed by microradiography. Furthermore, the remineralization data of human and bovine dentine are quantitatively compared. The main results of this paper are: (1) the efficacy of human (and bovine) remineralization is about proportional to the square root of the F level in the remineralizing solution, and (2) the amount of mineral effectively deposited in the dentine is most likely controlled by the diffusion of fluoride into the tissue. This study shows furthermore that although numerical differences exist in the remineralization of human and bovine dentine, the general remineralization behaviour is quite similar. The presence of F- in the parts per million range is essential for the remineralization efficacy in vitro and also for the 'overremineralization' of the outer dentine surface.

D003731 Dental Caries Localized destruction of the tooth surface initiated by decalcification of the enamel followed by enzymatic lysis of organic structures and leading to cavity formation. If left unchecked, the cavity may penetrate the enamel and dentin and reach the pulp.

D003804 Dentin The hard portion of the tooth surrounding the pulp, covered by enamel on the crown and cementum on the root, which is harder and denser than bone but softer than enamel, and is thus readily abraded when left unprotected.
