Self-assembling peptide (P11-4) exhibited an outstanding ability for biomimetic re-mineralization of incipient enamel carious lesions. It creates a 3D matrix within the subsurface of carious lesions, allowing de novo formation of Hydroxyapatite crystals, thus enabling guided enamel regeneration of the demineralized enamel structure. Addition of fluoride to P11-4 may have a synergistic effect on the remineralization potential.
