TiO2-based glass-ceramic coatings: An innovative approach to architectural panel applications
Exterior claddings are used for architectural purposes primarily for practical and esthetic reasons. Panels are subjected to a variety of impacts, including chemical, and ultraviolet radiation, and are intended to survive them.

Enamel fibulae in Kabarda-Beshtau, 1st to 3rd century [PDF]
The article considers seven bronze fibulae decorated with enamels. They have been discovered in the late 19th century, in the 1970s, and in the early 21th century in the foothill area of the Central Caucasus (Kabarda-Beshtau). Fasteners No.

Repair of tooth enamel by a biomimetic mineralization frontier ensuring epitaxial growth
Study shows the repair of enamel via a biomimetic growth frontier that is constructed from calcium phosphate ion clusters. The regeneration of tooth enamel, the hardest biological tissue, remains a considerable challenge because its complicated and well ...

Tooth Enamel and Its Dynamic Protein Matrix
Tooth enamel is the outer covering of tooth crowns, the hardest material in the mammalian body, yet fracture resistant. The extremely high content of 95 wt% calcium phosphate in healthy adult teeth is achieved through mineralization of a proteinaceous ...

State of the Art Enamel Remineralization Systems: The Next Frontier in Caries Management
The principles of minimally invasive dentistry clearly dictate the need for clinically effective measures to remineralize early enamel caries lesions. While fluoride-mediated remineralization is the cornerstone of current caries management philosophies ...

Protein nanoribbons template enamel mineralization
Significance How does enamel achieve its remarkable microstructure? This study reveals that the cleaved enamel protein amelogenin adopts a ribbon-like supramolecular structure that controls the growth of mineral into nanofibers. Protein nanoribbons of 15

Analysis of enamel development using murine model systems: approaches and limitations.
A primary goal of enamel research is to understand and potentially treat or prevent enamel defects related to amelogenesis imperfecta (AI). Rodents are ideal models to assist our understanding of how enamel is formed because they are easily genetically ...

The hidden structure of human enamel
Enamel is the hardest and most resilient tissue in the human body. Enamel includes morphologically aligned, parallel, ∼50 nm wide, microns-long nanocrystals, bundled either into 5-μm-wide rods or their space-filling interrod.

The Enamel Phenotype in Homozygous Fam83h Truncation Mice
Background Truncation FAM83H mutations cause human autosomal dominant hypocalcified amelogenesis imperfecta (ADHCAI), an inherited disorder characterized by severe hardness defects in dental enamel.
