Hello /sci/,
>a fluorapatite-like remineralised veneer is formed over the remaining surface of the enamel; this veneer is much more acid-resistant than the original hydroxyapatite, and is formed more quickly than ordinary remineralised enamel would be.
If after brushing my teeth, i put some toothpaste in my mouther and keep if for a few minutes instead of direct rincing, do you think it'll speed remineralisation up?

There's a better way, there are fluoride products made exactly for that reason. Ask your dentist about them.

Nice thanks.

What does remineralisation even mean?
for what I know you can't regenerate enamel (at least not faster than you'll lose even with best hygiene in thi whole Indian country)
Does it harden the teeth?

remineralization is the replacement of one mineral (hydroxyapatite) with another (fluoroapatite). basically, fluoride displaces hydroxide.

Isn't fluoride bad for your general health?

There is a surprising amount of conflicting Data on that.
Kinda like how up till a few years ago everyone thought global warming was a conspiracy theory because of conflicting Data.

>Dr. Soon also received at least $230,000 from the Charles G. Koch Charitable Foundation. (Mr. Koch’s fortune derives partly from oil refining.) However, other companies and industry groups that once supported Dr. Soon, including Exxon Mobil and the American Petroleum Institute, appear to have eliminated their grants to him in recent years.
