Theaflavins as a novel cross-linker quickly stabilize demineralized dentin collagen against degradation
Abstract To investigate the ability of theaflavins (TF) from black tea to protect dentin collagen against enzymatic degradation via cross-linking effect under clinically relevant conditions. 10-µm-thick dentin films were microtomed from dentin slabs of human molars. Following demineralization, films...
