Remineralisation of teeth

Remineralisation of teeth

Remineralisation of teeth is a process in which minerals are returned to the molecular structure of the tooth itself. This process cannot replace lost tooth material (that is, it will not fill a cavity that has developed into a hole) [http://www.rdhmag.com/articles/article_display.html?id=260180] ] .
