Abstract
The invention relates to a method for preparing a composition for treating a tooth lesion, said composition comprising peptides that are capable of undergoing self-assembly at a certain pH. The compositions of the invention are highly suitable for being used in the medical field, in particular for remineralising a tooth lesion such as a subsurface caries lesion.
Claims8
1-8. (canceled)
A composition in lyophilized undissolved form comprising a peptide that undergoes self-assembly at a pH value below 7.5, wherein the peptide is predominantly in a monomeric form;
- a non-reducing sugar;
- and
- a non-volatile buffer;
- wherein upon reconstitution of the composition in water, a solution with a pH that is 0.1 to 0.5 pH units above the pH at which the peptide starts to undergo self-assembly is obtained in which the peptide is predominantly present in a monomeric form.
