Non-Fluoridated Remineralising Agents in Dentistry Akriti Batra

The dawn of preservative and minimal intervention dentistry demonstrates that newer approaches for enamel remineralization are the need of the hour, independent of fluoride remineralizing systems. Non - fluoridated remineralization systems are not dependent on variables like saliva quality and patient compliance. However, most currently available non - fluoride remineralizing systems are based on improving efficacy of fluoride and reducing the possible fluoride concerns. There is a need for a biomimetic approach for regeneration of enamel in the long term which focuses on sturdy attachment of enamel apatite crystals to the tooth surface, akin to the creation of artificial enamel.
