Introduction :
Blood clam (Anadara Granosa) shell waste and shrimp (Litopenaeus Vannamei) shell waste are still not widely used properly, whereas shells of blood clam and shrimp shells have many ingredients that can be utilized, blood clam shell and shrimp shell have components such as calcium, protein so that the potential to be used as a remineralisasi teeth. Casein phosphopeptide-amorphus calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) is a proven ingredient that can protect against tooth enamel surfaces that serve as tooth remineralization. The purpose of this study was to determine the comparison of blood clam (anadara granosa) shell paste, shrimp (litopenaeus vannamei) shell paste and casein phosphopeptide-amorphus calcium phosphate (cpp-acp) paste as teeth remineralization material
Objective : The objective of this study was to determine the comparison of blood clam (anadara granosa) shell paste, shrimp (litopenaeus vannamei) shell paste and casein phosphopeptide-amorphus calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) paste as teeth remineralization material.
 
Method : 
This study was an experimental laboratory with cross sectional design. Study sample was 15 maxillary central incisors that were applied with 35% hydrogen peroxide for 2 hours, then assessed with Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS). Samples were divided into 3 groups: 5 samples were applied using blood clam (anadara granosa) shell paste, 5 samples using shrimp shell paste and 5 samples were applied using CPP-ACP paste every 8 hours for 14 consecutive days then checked with EDS. Data analysis using SPSS Test Independent T-test to see comparison of blood clam (anadara granosa) shell paste, shrimp (litopenaeus vannamei) shell paste and casein phosphopeptide-amorphus calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) paste as teeth remineralization material.
 
Result : 
The result of this study showed P> 0.05 which means there was no significant difference between blood clam shell paste, shrimp shell paste and CPP-ACP mineral composition.
 
Conclusion: 
Blood clam shell paste and Shrimp shell paste has an effective value to be used as tooth remineralization material.
 
Keywords : Blood clam shell paste, , shrimp shell paste, CPP-ACP paste, tooth remineralization
