Primary outcomePrimary: Relative Erosion Resistance (RER) of Enamel Specimens Post 4 Hours of Treatment Exposure — -36.66; -36.53; -36.98; -77.82 Percentage RER — p=<0.0001
Summary
The purpose of this study is to compare and evaluate the ability of two European Union (EU) regulated gel to foam toothpaste formulations versus a non-fluoride toothpaste using a modified in-situ model of dental erosion and remineralization. A positive control i.e fluoride containing toothpaste marketed in EU will also be compared to non-fluoride toothpaste.
