Demineralization capacity of commercial 10-methacryloyloxydecyl dihydrogen phosphate-based all-in-one adhesive

The rate of MDP-Ca salt produced by the demineralization of enamel and dentin depends on the components that constitute commercial adhesive more strongly than on the concentrations of MDP and water in the respective adhesive. This is because HEMA-containing adhesive shows a slower production rate of MDP-Ca salt than HEMA-free adhesive in the enamel and dentin samples.
