Abstract
The objective of the clinical study is to compare the remineralisation potential of Fuji IX with Dycal at different time
intervals. 55 children in the age group of 9-13 years were selected with class I caries lesions in primary molars. Teeth
with no obvious clinical signs and symptoms and a minimum dentine thickness of 0.5 to 1mm and no radiographic
changes were selected. Teeth were divided into three groups – control and two experimental groups. The mineral
content analysis was done with the help of EDAX. The minerals analysed were Sodium, Magnesium, Aluminium, Silica,
Phosphorus, Chlorine , Calcium. Teeth in the control group showed lowest mineral content. In the experimental group
Fuji IX demonstrated better remineralization potential than Dycal.
