Morphological study of remineralization of the eroded enamel lesions by tyrosine-rich amelogenin peptide
This study demonstrates that the peptide TRAP modulates the formation of hydroxyapatite in eroded enamel and that the newly formed crystals resemble natural enamel crystals and promote the remineralization of enamel, providing a promising biomaterial for remineralization treatment of enamel lesions.
