Summary
Dental caries (tooth decay) and erosion involve loss of tooth mineral and are major public health problems. The project will involve the proof-of-concept testing of a prototype dental professional product MI Enamel/Dentine RepairTM to repair early stages of mineral loss non-invasively. This will result in the development of a system which should revolutionize dental practice globally for the non-invasive repair of early tooth decay and erosion lesions with a surface seal of tooth-like mineral.
