Objective(s): The present study aimed to assess the in-vitro efficacy of nanoparticulate calcium sodium phosphosilicate mouthwash in the obstruction of dentinal tubules.Materials and Methods: This in-vitro, study was conducted on 120 sections obtained from extracted human premolars, which were etched with citric acid for two minutes and rinsed with distilled water. Afterwards, the section...

Introduction Calcium sodium phosphosilicate (trade name NovaMin) is an inorganic amorphous compound that contains only calcium, sodium, phosphate, and silica. The calcium sodium phosphosilicate (CSPS) technology was invented by Professor Larry Hench at the University of Florida in the late 1960s, and found use in the development of new bone regenerative materials. The original composition propo...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the enamel remineralization potential of two toothpastes, one of which was based on Recaldent (CPP- ACP) and the other on NovaMin (Calcium-sodium-phosphosilicate). Human permanent molar teeth were subjected to three consecutive demineralization cycles. These cycles were followed by remineralization of the experimental groups by toothpastes containing...

Objectives. The aim of the present study was to review the published literature in order to identify relevant studies for inclusion and to determine whether there was any evidence on the clinical effectiveness of selected desensitizing toothpastes, calcium sodium phosphosilicate (CSPS), amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP), nanohydroxyapatite, and casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate ...

OBJECTIVE NovaMin is technically described as amorphous sodium calcium phosphosilicate, and has been shown in laboratory studies to rapidly occlude dentin tubules through the deposition of particles that react to form a protective layer, similar to bone mineral, on the dentin surface. NovaMin was originally developed as a bone regenerative material and is highly biocompatible. The objective of ...

OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effect of three calcium sodium phosphosilicate (CSPS)/sodium monofluorophosphate containing dentifrices, compared to positive and negative controls on plaque re-growth in a non-brushing model, after 4 days of twice daily use, as determined by plaque area and Turesky plaque index (TPI). METHODS This was an exploratory, single-centre, examiner-blind, randomised, contr...

The Raman response function and Raman nonlinear index of phosphosilicate fibers are calculated for several P2O5 concentrations. The nonlinear index of phosphosilicate fiber is estimated by using the Boling formula, and it is used to calculate the Raman fraction of the nonlinear index. On the other hand, the Raman response function of the phosphosilicate fibers is fitted to a superposition of si...
