Once enamel wears away, it can't repair itself1. However, it is possible to repair and strengthen weakened enamel – a process known as 'remineralization' – and protect your teeth from future erosion.
How long does remineralization of teeth take?
The remineralization process usually takes about three to four months to take effect. However, once you begin to better fortify your enamel, you may start to see stronger teeth, experience less sensitivity, and even reveal a whiter smile.
What does remineralization do for teeth?
Tooth remineralization is a normal process that happens each day within our mouths. Remineralization repairs the outer layer of our tooth, also known as enamel, which is known to be the hardest substance in our body. Tooth enamel comprises approximately 96% minerals including hydroxyapatite.
