Abstract
ObjectiveIn addition to its role as a remineralizing agent in preventing dental caries, calcium product (CPP–ACP) delivered as a mousse (Tooth Mousse®, TM) can reduce erosion of enamel and dentine. The aim of this study was to determine whether CPP–ACP could also reduce erosive tooth wear involving toothbrush abrasion.MethodsFlat, polished enamel and dentine specimens (n = 72) were subjected to 10 wear regimes, with each regime involving erosion in 0.3% citric acid (pH 3.2) for 10 min followed by toothbrush abrasion in a slurry of fluoride-free toothpaste and artificial saliva (1:3 ratio
