MATERIALS AND METHODS: Buccal and lingual enamel surfaces of the selected 20 molar teeth were used, and embedded in acrylic resin and enamel surfaces were ground flat with Silicon carbide paper disc. Samples were assigned into 4 groups with 10 samples each. Group1 was the control with no treatment, Group 2 of CPP-ACP, Tooth mousse, GC INDIA, Group 3 of CPP-ACPF, Tooth mousse plus, GC INDIA and Group 4 of Arginine containing paste( Sensitive pro relief, COLGATE INDIA). The specimens were then exposed to erosive challenge and treatment. The surface roughness’s of the samples were evaluated before and after erosive cycles using surface contact profilometer. RESULTS: There was no significant difference seen while comparing before and after values for the groups. In intragroup comparison, significant difference for RA before and RA after values in all 4 groups were seen.
