The fast monitoring of oral bacterial infection, bacterial clearance and repairing of enamel
damage caused by dental caries relies on an effective way of monitoring, killing and …

A wirelessly powered and controlled biased-AC electroosmotic (biased-ACEO) lab-on-a-film
(LOF) is presented here for particle and fluid manipulation. Amplitude modulation (AM) and …

This study investigated the combining effect of cold plasma and bioglass-phosphoric acid
paste on demineralized enamel. Fifty bovine incisors' enamel specimens were challenged …

Background: Bleaching is an effort to lighten the color of teeth through the application of
chemicals. One of the side effects of bleaching is that it causes demineralization so that the …

AC electrokinetics (ACEK) has been shown to deliver certain drugs into human teeth more
effectively than diffusion. However, using electrical wires to power intraoral ACEK devices …

AIM: This study aimed to assess the antibacterial activity against the cariogenic
Streptococcus mutans (ATCC 25175) and the commensal Actinomyces viscous (1300 …

Abstract The World Health Organization notes that 60% to 90% of children and nearly 100%
of adults have a history of dental caries. The caries process begins with the action of organic …

Fluoride deposition into the pores of enamel is necessary at high concentrations to reduce
enamel demineralization and with a high degree of penetration to account for loss by …

Introduction: Laser diode irradiation, the use of fluoride varnish, and casein phosphopeptide-
calcium amorphous phosphate (CCP-ACP) paste have been suggested as effective …

Purpose: To compare fluoride uptake by enamel after applying 1.23% acidulated phosphate
fluoride gel to human tooth enamel topically (n= 12) or with combined dielectrophoresis and …
