Abstract

It is becoming increasingly evident that recombinant DNA technology, physical-chemistry and selected biological processes can be coupled leading to the development of new “synthetic” biomaterials. This summary and prospectus will highlight selected features related to dental enamel biomineralization towards the development of human dental enamel as a restorative biomaterial.
