The enamel organic matrix: structure and function
Brazilian Journal of Oral Sciences, 2015 Dental enamel is the most mineralized tissue in the vertebrate body and contains the largest known biologically formed hydroxyapatite crystals. Its formation occurs extracellularly through the collaboration of a proteic transient framework (the enamel ...

Neanderthal and Denisova tooth protein variants in present-day humans.
PLoS ONE, 2017 Environment parameters, diet and genetic factors interact to shape tooth morphostructure. In the human lineage, archaic and modern hominins show differences in dental traits, including enamel thickness, but variability also exists among living ...

F1000Research, 2020 Human enamel once formed cannot be biologically repaired or replaced. Saliva has a significant role in remineralization of dental enamel. It not only has a buffering capacity to neutralize the oral cavity’s low pH generated after acidic encounters, but ...

Therapeutic management of dental fluorosis: A critical review of literature
Saudi Journal of Oral Sciences, 2014 Dental fluorosis is a specific condition due to chronic ingestion of excessive fluoride during enamel formation. The cleavage and removal of enamel proteins are disturbed.

Quantitative proteomic analysis of the effect of fluoride on the acquired enamel pellicle. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The acquired enamel pellicle (AEP) is a thin film formed by the selective adsorption of salivary proteins onto the enamel surface of teeth. The AEP forms a critical interface between the mineral phase of teeth (hydroxyapatite) and the oral microbial ...
