| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study evaluates the effect of self-assembling peptide P11-4 on bovine
dentin remineralization by measuring changes in ultrasonic propagation velocity and using opticalcoherence tomography. Sonic velocity was found to decrease with time for specimens stored in the demineralizing solution. On the other hand, increases in sonic velocity were found for specimens treated with P11-4 . By measuring the ultrasonic propagation velocity, it can be concluded that P11-4 application has an ability to promote bovine dentin remineralization.
