EAER: An Alternative and Effective Remineralization non-invasive method in Restoration of carious tooth

This article deals with the newer technologies that are used in the remineralization procedure of tooth thus avoiding usage of drills on the tooth structure and preserving the enamel as a whole. A number of finer and newer technologies are being developed so that procedures can be more friendly and acceptable to both the dentist as well as the patient, these newer strategies are also concerned in preserving the tooth structure as a whole without the introduction off any foreign material, thus increasing the life as well as the strength of the tooth structure. This paper gives an ephemeral information on various newer strategies of remineralization with more emphasis on the most recently introduced remineralization technique such as electrically accelerated and enhanced remineralization technique (EAER).

I n t r o d u c t i o n Dental caries is the one of the most common dental issues among the various populations irrespective of age, gender and geographic regions. The treatment available is simple cost effective yet many people neglect it due to dental phobia and lack of dental treatment awareness.

Hence, it is necessary to explore an alternative treatment modality which should eliminate the phobia among the patients, less technique sensitive. In addition, that should also prevent the recurrent caries and strengthen the natural tooth. This article provide an overview of the various newer techniques developed on remineralisation procedures and gives more
