Method of using remineralizing agents
A mouthguard helps.
Since the active substance is applied to the inside of the onlay and fits tightly to the teeth after it is installed, a remineralization tray is considered the most effective way to carry out the procedure. The only nuance is that you first need to purchase to order or make at home (there are such options) your own individual set of onlays for the teeth. It is recommended for an adult to wear a mouthguard with a medicinal composition on the teeth for no more than 30 minutes. After the procedure, it is better not to eat or drink for another half hour.
Without the help of a mouthguard.
If there are no individual pads, a regular toothbrush, brush or applicator from the kit will help. Remineralization gel, mousse or cream is usually applied after brushing the teeth and should remain on the enamel surface for up to 1 hour. After the procedure, in most cases there is no need to rinse your mouth with water.
At a young age, special attention should be paid to the condition of the enamel, since the enamel of newly erupted teeth is not sufficiently saturated with minerals and is therefore easily damaged by acids.
It is necessary to consult a dentist during the period of changing teeth. The specialist will select a suitable product for home care of the child’s teeth and prescribe a series of professional procedures.
Remineralization of tooth enamel. Clinician's perspective

Toothpaste with a remineralizing effect can compensate for the lack of minerals and become a successful additional remedy in the treatment of demineralization. Introducing the new ROCS biocomplex toothpaste.
The enamel of our teeth is regularly exposed to aggressive attack, from the simplest food acids from fruits and juices to the acids used during dental procedures. In addition, there are factors that cause or simply enhance the loss of the mineral component of enamel endogenously: these are diseases associated with impaired mineral metabolism, and a number of hormonal disorders or conditions.
The disappearance of minerals from tooth enamel is called “demineralization” (“decalcification”). At the same time, in our body there is a constant process of compensation for the demineralization process - this is physiological remineralization, which is provided by the protein fractions of saliva, as well as a number of its other properties. But very often locally (in the area of several or a whole group of teeth), as a result of excessive demineralizing load, processes arise that become decompensated, and then chalky-colored spots or stripes appear on the teeth. A symptom that often accompanies demineralization is enamel sensitivity. In this situation, the teeth already need specialized help - remineralizing therapy (abbreviated as remotherapy).
Various manufacturers have already proposed many products and preparations for remotherapy, in particular those based on casein/amorphous calcium phosphate, silicon compounds, tricalcium phosphate and other components. All of them either have restrictions for use or insufficient clinical effectiveness, or are difficult to access for mass consumption. Balanced mineral complexes for self-use by patients are rightly considered today to be the most logical, very accessible, without contraindications and time restrictions for use, and at the same time effective for remotherapy.
ROCS Medical Minerals is , without exaggeration, a unique and most sought after mineral complex by specialists, created taking into account the clinical logic of enamel remineralization. The main active component of the complex is calcium glycerophosphate - a compound based on two components that are most important for saturating the enamel with minerals - calcium and phosphorus.
Calcium glycerophosphate (GP) is a compound with a high level of bioavailability, since it is a direct substrate for salivary enzymes. It is the ability of GF to integrate into the physiological process of mineralization that allows for the rapid restoration of demineralized tooth enamel. The remineralization process is accelerated by the inclusion of magnesium salt, an activator of salivary enzymes, in the gel. Another basic component - xylitol - performs an anti-carious function. It is included in the ROCS Medical Minerals gel.

The ROCS Medical gel line is represented by the following options
| A very important feature of the ROCS Medical gel is the absence of fluorine compounds in its composition. When identifying foci of enamel demineralization, dentists very often prescribe fluoride-containing preparations, forgetting that the film formed by fluoride on the surface of the tooth prevents not only the release of calcium from the tooth enamel, but also the penetration of ions from saliva into the demineralization focus. That is why fluoride is needed not at the stages of the course of remotherapy, but after its completion. In this case, fluoride preparations are prescribed to stabilize the results of remineralization with calcium and phosphate. The presence of fluoride in remotherapy formulations most often reduces their effectiveness and limits their use. Fluoride-containing preparations cannot be recommended in areas of endemic fluorosis and for the prevention of early childhood caries. |
Classic ROCS Medical Minerals , which is a gel for remotherapy and has a wide range of indications for use. The main situations for its use: caries in the white spot stage, hypoplastic processes in tooth enamel, demineralization of enamel after teeth whitening, in a complex scheme with methods of microabrasion and composite infiltration of enamel, complex treatment of dental fluorosis, focal demineralization after removal of braces, stabilizing and therapy that improves the results of clinical teeth whitening, as an alternative to teeth whitening in the case of a number of contraindications to it, and others.
ROCS Medical Sensitive , unlike the classic gel, contains a special component - potassium nitrate, which is a traditional substance for drugs that relieve the sensitivity of hard dental tissues due to impaired conduction of pain impulses. Due to its sensitivity-compensating properties, ROCS Medical Sensitive is recommended as a gel with the same remineralizing properties, but for those clinical situations where there is also an additional factor of tooth sensitivity, which quite often accompanies local loss of minerals in the teeth. In addition, the gel is also recommended as a means to relieve normal tooth sensitivity.
Since remotherapy can and should be done at any age, starting from the moment of teething, a special ROCS Medical minerals with strawberry flavor . Due to the flavoring additive, it is more pleasant for children and adolescents.
For difficult situations, when there is a need for a particularly active remineralizing effect, there are a number of products that can enhance the effect: special mineral rinses, mineral tablets (such as ROCS Medical chewable tablets ).
And, of course, during the days and subsequently after remotherapy, it is extremely important for the patient to use a special toothpaste with special remineralizing activity. ROCS Biocomplex Active Protection toothpaste is ideal for this purpose and contains the proteolytic enzyme bromelain and its peptide components, calcium glycerophosphate, magnesium chloride and xylitol (6%). Each component of the complex, performing its task, increases the efficiency of others. The enzyme, by breaking down plaque proteins, promotes its high-quality removal from the surface of the teeth. Bromelain and peptides are essential factors in plaque control. They provide the prolonged action of toothpaste against plaque. According to the subjective assessment of consumers, teeth remain smooth and clean throughout the day.
| BASIC RULES REMINERALIZING THERAPIES It is important to remember some basic rules for remineralizing therapy (regardless of the nosological form): • remotherapy is carried out only by applications in an individual or disposable mouth guard • optimal application time is about 30 minutes • one application per day after brushing your teeth is enough • the optimal course of remotherapy is 30 days, the minimum is 14 days |
Slowing down the formation of plaque provides teeth with almost constant availability of the mineral components contained in toothpaste and saliva. As a result, mineralization occurs of both healthy enamel and the initial foci of carious lesions.
For successful mineralization of teeth, it is desirable to have factors that modulate the permeability of tooth enamel. For this purpose, the active complex of the paste - MINERALIN® - uses xylitol in a concentration of 6%. Research by American and Finnish specialists has found that in this concentration xylitol significantly enhances the mineralization process, which is associated with its ability to form complex compounds with calcium. In the composition of toothpaste, this substance performs several functions: being a sweetener, xylitol improves its taste characteristics; Being a polyhydric alcohol, it functions as a moisture-retaining component. The mechanism of involvement of this substance in the biochemical metabolism of streptococci is characterized as lethal synthesis, and therefore the activity of cariogenic bacteria is reduced. Experiments have established that the effect of xylitol against cariogenic streptococci appears at a concentration of 2–2.5%.
ROCS Biocomplex Active Protection toothpaste with ROCS Medical Minerals , you can achieve the maximum rate of remineralization of tooth enamel.

Choosing the appropriate method for strengthening enamel
When wondering which method to choose, don’t make the decision on your own. Home methods for remineralizing tooth enamel are effective only at the initial stage of enamel destruction. If demineralization has affected the deep layers, then only professional help from a dentist can stop the process. Therefore, it is better to seek the advice of a specialist before purchasing a specific enamel strengthening product.
In addition, in some cases, the dentist may recommend complex therapy: a combination of home dental care with remineralization in the clinic. In this case, the doctor will select for you both suitable products for independent use and professional procedures.
Restoring the mineral composition of teeth is the first and very important step to oral health. It is important to notice the problem in time and contact a specialist, then it will be possible to choose the right course of treatment, stop the carious process, reduce the sensitivity of the teeth and protect them from destruction.
