Abstract: Remineralizing agents represent a new frontier in dentistry. They may be
classified as fluoride agents, calcium and phosphate based agents, herbal agents or
combinations. The modes of delivery of remineralizing agents may be as dentifrices,
mouth rinses, lozenges or chewing gums. The applications of remineralizing agents
may be extrapolated to virtually every branch of dentistry ranging from pediatric to
geriatric dentistry.
