Table 2.

Changes of residual mass in completely demineralized dentin matrix after pretreatment with deionized water, EGCG, nHAp@MSN, and EGCG@nHAp@MSN. Values are mean ± SD in %, n = 10. Different superscript numbers in a row indicate significant differences (P < 0.05).

Dentin treatment	Residual mass (%)
Deionized water	0.52 ± 0.18^A
0.1% EGCG	0.59 ± 0.12^A
100 mg·mL⁻¹ nHAp@MSN	6.50 ± 0.61^B
100 mg·mL⁻¹ EGCG@nHAp@MSN	8.62 ± 1.19^C
