Quantitation of enamel demineralization mechanisms. 3. A critical examination of the hydroxyapatite model.

چکیده
A physical model which assumes that hydroxyapatite is the thermodynamic governing phase for the acid dissolution-rate behavior of enamel has been critically examined theoretically and experimentally. Both enamel powder and synthetic hydroxyapatite initial dissolution-rate experiments were conducted under various conditions of acid-butler type and concentration, pH, and common ion concentrations.

Synthesis of Boron Nanocomposites Doped on the Hydroxyapatite-Chitosan Surface and Its Effect on the Microhardness of Demineralized Tooth Enamel
Background and Objective: Noninvasive treatments are preferred for tooth enamel remineralization, and metal nanocomposites could be used for this purpose. The present study investigated the effect of boron nanocomposites doped on the hydroxyapatite-chitosan surface on the microhardness of demineralized tooth enamel. Materials and Methods: In this laboratory study, boron nanocomposites doped on...
متن کاملA Novel Kinetic Method to Measure Apparent Solubility Product of Bulk Human Enamel
Introduction: Tooth enamel mineral loss is influenced by its solubility product value, which is fundamental to the understanding of de- and remineralization resulting from a carious or erosive challenge. Published pKsp values for human enamel and hydroxyapatite range from 110 to 126 suggesting a heterogeneous nature of enamel solubility. However, this range of values may also result from the va...
متن کاملCrystal chemistry and dissolution of calcium phosphate in dental enamel
The mineral component (at least 95 wt. %) of dental enamel is hydroxyapatite (hydroxylapatite) with multiple substitutions. The biogenic origin of enamel is reflected in the unusual ribbon-like morphology of the crystals, which are extremely elongated in the c-axis direction, and their organized arrangement within the tissue. The study of enamel dissolution has been driven by the very high prev...
متن کاملZinc-Containing Hydroxyapatite Enhances Cold-Light-Activated Tooth Bleaching Treatment In Vitro
Cold-light bleaching treatment has grown to be a popular tooth whitening procedure in recent years, but its side effect of dental enamel demineralization is a widespread problem. The aim of this study was to synthesize zinc-substituted hydroxyapatite as an effective biomaterial to inhibit demineralization or increase remineralization. We synthesized zinc-substituted hydroxyapatite containing di...
