Funded Activity Summary

Tooth decay and erosion involve loss of tooth mineral and are major public health problems.The project will involve the testing of a prototype professional product “Tooth Mousse Professional” to repair early stages of mineral loss. It is anticipated that this project will result in the development of a system with substantially superior properties for the non-invasive treatment of early tooth decay and erosion. The system will also encourage the growth of beneficial bacteria in the mouth.
