REMINERALIZATION AGENTS AND CARIES PREVENTIVE AGENTS USED IN DENTISTRY

Abstract

Dental caries is a major public health problem in most countries. For this purpose, the focus in caries research has recently shifted to prevention of dental caries and remineralization of incipient carious. Although dental caries is a disease characterized progressive manner, it can be stopped at an early stage and can be remineralized before a cavitation ocur. There are several remineralization agents and caries preventive agents used in dental practice, such as ionic technologes, bioactive agents, sugar alcohols, herbal agents and calcium-phosphate based materials. In this review, the informations about caries preventive agents and remineralization agents were examined and aimed to explain the studies on this subjects

DİŞ HEKİMLİĞİNDE KULLANILAN REMİNERALİZASYON AJANLARI VE ÇÜRÜK ÖNLEYİCİ AJANLAR

Abstract

Diş çürükleri birçok ülkede önemli bir halk sağlığı sorunudur. Bu nedenle çürük çalışmalarının odak noktası diş çürüğünün önlenmesi ve başlangıç çürüklerinin remineralizasyonuna doğru yönelmiştir. Her ne kadar diş çürüğü ilerleyici tarzda seyir gösteren bir hastalık olsa da, erken aşamada durdurulabilir ve kavitasyon oluşmadan remineralize edilebilir niteliktedir. Klinik uygulamalarda; iyon teknolojileri, biyoaktif ajanlar, şeker alkolleri, bitkisel ajanlar ve kalsiyum fosfat kaynaklı ajanlar gibi birçok remineralizasyon ajanı ve çürük önleyici ajan kullanılmaktadır. Bu derlemede çürük önleyici ajanlar ve remineralizasyon ajanları hakkındaki bilgiler incelenmiş ve konu ile ilgili çalışmaların açıklanması amaçlanmıştır.
