Remineralization of dentin by mucin-containing saliva substitutes might be inhibited by sialic acids bound to mucin, which are known to complex calcium. Thus, the aim of this investigation was to evaluate the effects of various mucin-containing solutions, differing in calcium phosphate concentrations, to be used as saliva substitutes on demineralized bovine dentin in vitro.
