ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPercentage Surface Microhardness Recovery (SMHR) of Phyte (0% 0.425% and 0.85%) at 2 WeeksBaseline upto 2 weeks
SMHR test was used to assess the changes in mineralization status of partially demineralized enamel specimens using a Wilson 2100 Hardness tester. SMH was determined by measuring the length of the indentations of enamel specimens. % SMHR was calculated from indentation length (micrometer \[μm\]) of sound enamel specimen at baseline (B), indentation length (μm) after in vitro demineralization(D), indentation length (μm) after intra-oral exposure (R): \[D-R/D-B\]\*100.
Secondary
% SMHR of 0.85% Phytate Compared to 0% Phytate, in Presence of 1150ppm Fluoride and 0.3% ZnCl2, 0.3% ZnCl2 Compared to 0% ZnCl2 in the Presence of 1150ppm Fluoride and 0.3% ZnCl2 Compared to 0% ZnCl2 in the Presence of 1150ppm Fluoride and 0.85% Phytate
Baseline upto 2 weeks
SMHR test was used to assess the changes in mineralization status of partially demineralized enamel specimens using a Wilson 2100 Hardness tester. SMH was determined by measuring the length of the indentations of enamel specimens. % SMHR was calculated from indentation length (μm) of sound enamel specimen at baseline (B), indentation length (μm) after in vitro demineralization(D), indentation length (μm) after intra-oral exposure (R): \[D-R/D-B\]\*100.
SecondaryTransverse Microradiography (TMR) Net Remineralization Change (ΔM) Value of Phytate (0% 0.452% and 0.85%) at 4 WeeksBaseline upto 4 weeks
TMR was used to assess changes in the mineral status of partially demineralized enamel specimens. Lesions were analyzed at baseline and Integrated Mineral Loss (∆Z): (∆Z =(lesion depth x 87) - area under the curve \[Area under the curve which relates volume % mineral at distances from the specimen surface with respect to section thickness\]). After treatment a further section was taken from each lesion specimen for radiography assessment; ∆Z was calculated. The change which occurred in mineral content (∆M) of the lesions as a result of treatment was calculated by: ∆M= (baseline ∆Z - Post-treatment ∆Z).

SecondaryEnamel Fluoride Uptake (EFU) of All Study Formulation VariablesAt Week 2
The microdrill enamel biopsy technique was used to analyze the fluoride uptake by enamel. Each enamel specimen was mounted on the long axis of a drill attached to a microdrill and drilled to a depth of approximately 100 μm through the entire lesion (four cores per specimen). The enamel powder pooled from four drilling samples was then immediately analyzed for fluoride content using fluoride specific electrode and pH/ion meter. The amount of fluoride-uptake by enamel was calculated based on the amount of fluoride divided by the area of the enamel cores and expressed as μg/cm\^2.

Each enamel specimen was mounted on the long axis of a drill attached to a microdrill and drilled to a depth of approximately 100 μm through the entire lesion (four cores per specimen).
