  • Title: Experimental study of phosphopeptide in promoting tooth remineralization.
    Author: Zhang L, Li Z, Dong Y.
    Journal: Chin J Dent Res; 2000 May; 3(1):27-30. PubMed ID: 11314337.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To explore a new method for effective and safe prevention and treatment of caries. METHODS: Following the theory of tooth remineralization, we searched for the mechanism and clinical application of tooth remineralization with phosphopeptide. RESULTS: Phosphopeptide, with calcium and phosphorus, had a high affinity for hydroxyapatite and could enhance tooth remineralization. CONCLUSION: Phosphopeptide was effective in the prevention and treatment of tooth decay. Clinically, it could be safely applied.
