Disclosure is a tooth mineralization solution and a mineralization method thereof. The tooth mineralization solution can be used to mineralize collagen and teeth. The mineralization solution component of the present application comprises two parts, namely, reagent A containing non-collagenous protein analogue and calcium salt, and reagent B is phosphate solution. The mineralization method of the tooth mineralization solution of the present application comprises the steps of first applying the reagent A to the surface of tooth, and then applying the reagent B to achieve tooth mineralization. In addition, the mineralization solution of the present application can also be used to achieve biomimetic mineralization of collagen by the same method, comprising the steps of soaking or floating single-layer reconstituted collagen fibril, collagen gel or collagen sponge in the reagent A, and then soaking or floating in the reagent B to achieve biomimetic mineralization.

A method and kit for the apical sealing an tooth root canal and for improving root canal fillings are described. Also described is a method for using bone glue as an apical stop for obturating root canals.

A dental implant made of a material comprising titanium. The implant includes a head portion having a non-rotational feature, a lowermost end opposing the head portion, and a threaded bottom portion for engaging bone between the head portion implant and the lowermost end. The implant further includes a nanocrystalline surface formed on at least a portion of the implant. The nanocrystalline surface includes discrete nanocrystals deposited on a roughened surface of the implant. The roughened surface includes at least one of a grit-blasted surface or an acid-etched surface. A portion of the roughened surface is exposed between at least some of the discrete nanocrystals such that the exposed roughened portion between the discrete nanocrystals is capable of contacting bone.

Disclosed are cement products, methods of forming cement using the cement product, and methods of using the cement product in orthopedic and dental applications.

The present invention relates to compositions and uses for reducing the visibility of hypomineralised dental surfaces or subsurfaces, in particular in dental enamel. In one aspect, the invention involves a method of reducing visibility of a hypomineralised dental surface or subsurface, the method comprising (i) contacting the hypomineralised dental surface or subsurface with a liquid composition comprising at least 40% w/v of phosphopeptide (PP)-stabilized amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) and/or amorphous calcium fluoride phosphate (ACFP) at a pH of less than or equal to pH 6; and (ii) subsequently to (i), raising the pH of the liquid composition applied to the hypomineralised dental surface or subsurface to equal to, or greater than, about 9, thereby forming a gel in and/or on the hypomineralised dental surface or subsurface, thereby reducing visibility of a hypomineralised dental surface or subsurface.
