The present review summarises the effects of titanium tetrafluoride (TiF(4)) on the development and progression of carious and erosive lesions. The mode of action of TiF(4) is due to the formation of an acid-stable surface layer, which provides mechanical protection

Hybrid-layer degradation occurs because of acidic properties of currently used adhesive systems. Titanium tetrafluoride couples with tooth surface, and titanium compounds are not substituted. Caffeic acid phenethyl esther inhibits endogenous matrix metalloproteinases that cause hybrid-layer degradation. It was hypothesized that
