Abstract
Various tissues in the body like bone, enamel dentin and cementum are composed of inorganic material
and they are exposed to multiple cycles of Demineralisation and remineralisation. Understanding these
biological mechanisms are necessary for developing treatments for these mineralisation related diseases
and specifically dental caries as far as dentistry is concerned. This article focuses on the mechanism and
rate of demineralisation and discusses in detail the causes of demineralisation.
