Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 30 Years (Adult)All SexesAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • 1. Criteria related to patient:

    • Age's eligible for trial was 18- 30 years.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This study will be conducted to evaluate: The remineralization potential of natural agents (egg shell powder and clove extract) versus bioadhesive polymers (carbopol and carboxymethyl cellulose) with or without PH cycling using microhardness test. The clinical efficacy of all agents in patients with early carious lesions.
