Parodontax: is a brand name of toothpaste and mouthwash currently owned by GlaxoSmithKline and was developed in 1937 in Germany. [ citation needed] In terms of remineralization and protection against renewed demineralization, a hydroxyapatite-containing toothpaste (Karex) appears to be inferior to a fluoride-containing toothpaste (Elmex) and a fluoride- and hydroxyapatite-free toothpaste (Ajona). Hence, the recommendation to use Karex to protect against demineralization should be critically questioned. Garberoglio R, Cozzani G.

Euthymol: a brand of antiseptic, fluoride-free toothpaste distributed by Johnson & Johnson that is characterised by its bright pink colour and medicinal taste. The antiseptic ingredient in the product is thymol.

Ajona does not use any dyes or preservatives.Another possible influencing factor on the remineralization potential of toothpastes could be their pH value. For example, Karex has a saliva-neutral pH, whereas the pH of Elmex is in the acidic range. It is assumed that a product with an acidic pH remineralizes better than a product with a neutral pH. Several studies have shown a reinforcing effect for fluoride-containing agents by lowering their pH, which is associated with an improved ability to absorb minerals into enamel defects [ 30– 32]. Longer transport times from Germany are leading to short "Best Before Dates" on fresh products. We will continue to offer these products even though they might reach you past their "Best Before Date". Unfortunately we will still have to charge full price for the products.

A pairwise comparison (Scheffé test) showed that the mean values of the toothpaste-treated analysis surfaces (S2—S4) also differed significantly from each other ( p< 0.001). Thus, the analysis surfaces treated with Elmex (S3) had a mean value of 5.01% (corresponding to the mean percentage of demineralization). The analysis surfaces treated with Ajona (S4) displayed a mean value of 8.89%; Karex showed a value of 9.85% (S2). The mean value of the percentage of demineralization of the surfaces treated purely with lactic acid (S1) was 11.78%. The control surfaces (S0) showed an average value of 0.35%. Hence, Elmex (S3) exhibited the lowest demineralization and thus remineralized most effectively, followed by Ajona (S4) and Karex (S2). Thus, Karex remineralized highly significantly less compared to the other toothpastes tested ( p< 0.001).

Storage of samples in isotonic saline solution between tooth brushing periods is not able to imitate intraoral mineralization processes [ 17]. Furthermore, it should also be considered that preparations that support remineralization under laboratory conditions when the tooth surface is clean do not necessarily have a caries-preventive effect [ 12]. It is just that this has been adequately and evidence-based demonstrated for fluoride-containing oral care products [ 2– 5]. Schiffner U. Verwendung von Fluoriden zur Kariesprävention. Bundesgesundheitsblatt Gesundheitsforschung Gesundheitsschutz. 2021;64(7):830–7. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00103-021-03347-4.The aim was to evaluate the remineralization potential as well as the extent of protection against renewed demineralization of enamel by hydroxyapatite-containing toothpaste (Karex) in comparison to fluoride-containing (Elmex) and fluoride- and hydroxyapatite-free toothpaste (Ajona) as control.

Remineralization and protection from demineralization: effects of a hydroxyapatite-containing, a fluoride-containing and a fluoride- and hydroxyapatite-free toothpaste on human enamel in vitro Colgate Announces Acquisition of GABA Holding AG - Strengthening its Oral Care Business in Europe & Confirms 4th QTR. & Full Year 2003 Earnings Estimates | Colgate-Palmolive Company". Close-Up: marketed by Unilever, [10] it was launched in 1967 and was the first gel toothpaste in the world.

Five demarcated surfaces were created on each tooth (S0—S4). Four of the surfaces (S1—S4) were exposed to lactic acid (pH 3) for 8 h (demineralization). S0 was left untreated as control. S1 was solely treated with acid. After demineralization, S2 was exposed to Karex for 2 min, of which 15 s were brushing. S3 was treated with Elmex and S4 with Ajona, accordingly. Then, the samples were evaluated using a scanning electron microscope and ImageJ image analysis software to determine the percentage of demineralization. Afterwards, S2-S4 were again exposed to lactic acid for 2 h, and subjected to pixel analysis another time. Data were statistically analysed using ANOVA with post-hoc Scheffé test and the Kurskal-Wallis test. Results
