Objectives: This study was conducted to evaluate the remineralization potential of grape seed extract versus amorphous calcium phosphate nanoparticles on sound and caries affected dentin.Materials and methods: Grape seed extract powder (GSE) was added to Clearfil SE primer with a concentration of 0.5 wt% to obtain primer + GSE while nanoparticles of amorphous calcium phosphate (NACP) were incorporated into the Clearfil SE adhesive at mass fractions of 20% to obtain adhesive + NACP. Class V cavity preparation was prepared on the anterior teeth of fifteen white rabbits. Rabbits were divided into three main groups according to the type of material …
