Does the Use of Different Remineralisation Agents in a 14-day Demineralisation/Remineralisation Cycle Affect the Bond Strength to Artificial Carious Enamel Surfaces?
Article in Oral health & preventive dentistry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeTo examine the effect of applying different forms of remineralising agents during a pH-cyclinge on the bond strength of a universal adhesive applied in the etch-and-rinse mode and the types of fractures that occur after shear bond-strength testing. MATERIALS AND
methods84 human molars were divided into seven equal groups. Groups 1 (intact enamel) and 2 (artificially demineralised enamel) served as the positive and negative controls, respectively. In the experimental groups (3-7), the enamel was treated using remineralising agents during a 14-day pH-cycling protocol. Group 3: fluoride gel; group 4: fluoride varnish; group 5: Tooth Mousse; group 6: MI Paste Plus; group 7: MI Varnish. Afterwards, the molars' crowns were sectioned off, and a universal adhesive (G2-Bond Universal) was applied to the buccal surfaces of these samples using etch-and-rinse mode. Nanohybrid resin composite restorations (G-aenial Posterior) were then placed, and shear bond-strength testing was performed. The effects of remineralisation agents on artificial carious lesions were evaluated using scanning electron microscopy/energy-dispersive analysis.
resultsThe fluoride varnish and MI varnish groups show statistically significantly lower shear bond strengths compared to the positive control group (p0.001). The bond strength to all remineralising agents was higher than that of the negative control group. All tested agents promoted remineralisation in demineralised areas of the enamel surface.
conclusionsRemineralisation agents in forms other than varnish do not negatively affect the shear-bond strength to enamel surfaces.
