A member asked:

Is 1000 ppm flouride toothpaste with salt water rinse enough to remineralize white spot lesions and reverse early decay?

2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

No. Please see your Dentist for guidance. Not all white spot reasons are amenable to remineralization.

Salt water does not remineralize teeth. Fluoride helps to strengthen the enamel matrix. A remineralizing toothpaste with high concentrations of calcium may help in reversing the earliest carious lesions.
