Demineralized human tooth enamel can undergo natural remineralization.
Demineralized human tooth enamel can undergo natural remineralization driven by saliva and physiological mineral deposition processes.
The claim is a specific, empirical statement regarding the biological property of tooth enamel. Multiple retrieved studies discuss and demonstrate natural remineralization mechanisms (such as salivary calcium and phosphate-driven mineralization), confirming that demineralized enamel can recover mineral content naturally or via biomimetic agents.

Discussion indicates that natural remineralization of teeth occurs due to calcium ions from saliva and physiological mineralization processes.

Demonstrates that demineralized enamel undergoes significant remineralization and structural recovery even when exposed purely to artificial saliva.
