ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPercentage Surface Micro Hardness Recovery (% SMH), of Brushing for 2 Minutes Versus (vs.) Brushing for 45 Seconds With 1.5g of Experimental Dentifrice.At Baseline and at Day 14
SMH recovery test was used to assess the changes in mineralization status of enamel specimens using a Wilson 2100 Hardness tester. SMH recovery was performed in-vitro and determined by measuring the length of the indentations of enamel specimens. An increase in the indentation length compared to the baseline indicates softening while decrease in the indentation length represents re-hardening of enamel surface. % SMH recovery was calculated from indentation length (micrometer \[μm\]) of sound enamel specimen at baseline (B), indentation length (μm) after in vitro demineralization (D1), indentation length (μm) after intra-oral exposure (R): \[D1-R/D1-B\] ×100.

SecondaryEnamel Fluoride Uptake (EFU) After Brushing for 2 Minutes vs. Brushing for 45 Seconds With 1.5g of Experimental Dentifrice.At Day 14
EFU was measured by using micro-drill analysis of the enamel specimens carried out after 14 days of intra-oral exposure for each of the toothpaste treatments. The amount of fluoride-uptake by enamel was calculated based on the amount of fluoride divided by the area of the enamel cores.
