Molecular Mechanisms of Dental Enamel Formation [PDF]
Tooth enamel is a unique mineralized tissue in that it is acellular, is more highly mineralized, and is comprised of individual crystallites that are larger and more oriented than other mineralized tissues. Dental enamel forms by matrix- mediated biomineralization. Enamel crystallites precipitate from a supersaturated solution within a well-delineated

Early childhood caries (ECC) involves cariogenic persisters that evade antimicrobial treatment. Persisters achieve this by downregulating heat shock proteins (HSPs) and formation of protein aggregates. Ti3C2 MXene‐based photothermal therapy (PTT) acts as a “nanothermal knife,” disrupting membranes, upregulating HSPs, inhibits aggregates, prevents ...

On the brittleness of enamel and selected dental materials [PDF]
Although brittle material behavior is often considered undesirable, a quantitative measure of "brittleness" is currently not used in assessing the clinical merits of dental materials.To quantify and compare the brittleness of human enamel and common dental restorative materials used for crown replacement.Specimens of human enamel were prepared from the

Erosion behaviour of human, bovine and equine dental hard tissues
Dental hard tissues from different species are used in dental research, but little is known about their comparability. The aim of this study was to compare the erosive behaviour of dental hard tissues (enamel, dentin) obtained from human, bovine and ...
