Abstract

Acid erosion and wear of natural enamel leading to sensitivity of teeth is a common condition amongst large population worldwide. It is a lifestyle related condition, resulting from the progressive loss of mineral phase from enamel surface. Unlike bone, the dental enamel is a dead tissue and cannot regenerate itself and it must be restored for preventing exposure of softer dentinal tubules and nerves [1], which is the root cause of pain. At present there is no long-term treatment except the daily use of brand tooth pastes, regular use of which provide some protection. Consequently, the dental condition globally is on rise.
