Acid exposure (1 % citric acid at natural pH) every 2500, F5K. 5000 and F15K. 15000 brushing-strokes. All groups were brushed for 55000 total brushing-strokes. Three-dimension images of the teeth were captured at baseline, after 15000, 35000 and 55000 brushing-strokes, using an intraoral scanner (TRIOS4, 3Shape).
