Comparison of Enamel, Dentin, and the Dentin–Enamel Junction in Horse, Dog, Wild Boar, and Macaque Using Confocal Raman Microscopy

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
Confocal Raman microscopy was used to map the dentin–enamel junction (DEJ) across four mammalian species. Chemical maps highlighted variations in mineral (phosphate/carbonate) and organic (amide/CH) phase. These results provide a comparative Raman framework to link tooth microchemistry with species‐specific structure and function.
