The oral illness known as dental caries is a prevalent and
complicated condition that has been a source of considerable health care issues
for communities for quite some time. A number of different remineralising
agents provide assistance to the remineralisation process, which helps to
prevent the progression of illness and improve the shape and functionality of
the teeth. Remineralisation is the process of adding important minerals,
primarily phosphate and calcium, and integrating them into areas of dental
decay that have lost these minerals as a result of demineralisation of tooth
structure. This process is known as remineralisation. The current chapter
discusses numerous materials that facilitate and encourage the remineralisation
of tooth structure, along with their deployment in clinical practice. Research
has primarily concentrated on creating resin-based composite formulations, with
less attention paid to the development of dental adhesives, crown cements and
resin-based sealants. Future research should prioritise the comprehensive
evaluation and characterisation of these materials to better understand their
mechanical and antibacterial properties.
