“…Within the framework of the biomimetic concept [ 13 , 14 ], reproduction of the inorganic base of tooth enamel and dentin can be best achieved by using nanocrystalline carbonate-substituted hydroxyapatite, n-cHAp, (Ca 10 (PO 4 ) 6−x (CO 3 ) x (OH) 2−x , 0.1 < x < 0.3), which is characterized by an excellent appropriateness with the properties of dental matrix apatite [ 1 , 15 ]. At the same time, a large amount of research considering the problem of dental tissue repair [ 5 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 ] has established the importance of using a combination of n-cHAp and polar amino acids in dental biocomposites.…”

“…In the last years, biomimetic concepts along these lines have been developed in oral care with the aim to address these issues [ 1 , 9 , 37 - 41 ]. Especially in the field of enamel remineralization, calcium phosphates have been identified as promising biomimetic alternatives due to their similarity to natural enamel [ 1 , 31 , 35 , 42 - 44 ]. It is assumed that calcium phosphate functions by infiltrating the micropores in early caries lesions, where it acts as crystal nuclei in the remineralization process by continuously attracting large amounts of calcium and phosphate ions from the oral fluids into the lesion, thus promoting natural remineralization processes [ 31 , 42 ].…”

“…Therefore, CaPO 4 bioceramics are widely used in a number of different applications throughout the body, covering all areas of the skeleton. The examples include healing of bone defects, fracture treatment, total joint replacement, bone augmentation, orthopedics, cranio-maxillofacial reconstruction, spinal surgery, otolaryngology, ophthalmology, and percutaneous devices [1][2][3], as well as dental fillings and periodontal treatments [4]. Furthermore, they are also used in nonosseous applications, such as ocular implants, allowing eye movements.…”
