Fucosterol and Fucoxanthin Enhance Dentin Collagen Stability and Erosion Resistance Through Crosslinking and MMP Inhibition
Fucosterol and fucoxanthin from marine algae effectively enhance dentin mechanical properties and resistance to acid-induced erosion through collagen cross-linking and MMP inhibition. These findings suggest that these compounds could serve as promising natural treatments for dentin preservation against acid attacks, potentially improving oral health outcomes.
