RDA

Abbreviation for Radioactive Dentine Abrasion. A measure of the protective/abrasive effect of toothpaste on the dentine. Depends on the hardness and size of the abrasive substances contained in the toothpaste. The lower the RDA, the more protective it is for the enamel.

Remineralization

Repair of minute lesions in the enamel by the reincorporation of mineral salts in the enamel. Promoted by the use of fluoride-containing preparations, e.g. elmex toothpaste and dental rinse or elmex gel.

Root caries

Since dentine has no protective enamel coating around exposed dental necks (dental roots) it is very susceptible to caries at these points. The regular use of elmex SENSITIVE PLUS toothpaste and dental rinse, together with weekly brushing with elmex gel, provides effective protection against dentinal and root caries.
