Molecular pathogenesis of root dentin caries
Oral Diseases, 1999Human dentin has a higher content of organic matrix and more non‐ideal hydroxyapatite than human enamel. Ultrastructural studies indicate that root caries involves both mineral dissolution and breakdown of the organic matrix. Factors involved in the root caries process seem more complicated than those in enamel carieS.

Current opinion in periodontology, 1994
Epidemiologic studies have shown that root surface caries are present worldwide. The prevalence and incidence of root surface caries differ widely among different populations but also among individuals within the same group. Differences in diagnostic criterias and reporting of data substantially influence epidemiologic data.

Microbial Etiology of Root Surface Caries
Gerodontology, 1986Available knowledge relating to the microbiology of root surface caries was reviewed. This included direct information from microbiological observations on human and animal material as well as subsidiary information derived from pertinent dietary studies and histological examination of cemental lesions.

The Epidemiology of Root Surface Caries
Journal of Dental Research, 1990Although a secular decline is being seen in coronal caries in children in industrialized countries, there appears to be a relatively high prevalence of root caries, with chronologically older adults exhibiting the highest prevalences. This paper reviews the descriptive and analytical epidemiology of root caries as found in recent national, regional ...

The Clinical Identification of Root Caries
Gerodontology, 1986This paper discusses a variety of considerations associated with the clinical identification of root caries. While focusing upon this clinical identification process from the perspective of the clinical researcher, the differing diagnostic needs between the clinical researcher and the dental practitioner are frequently addressed.

Diagnosis and Prediction of Root Caries
Advances in Dental Research, 1993Diagnosis is the process of recognizing diseases by their characteristic clinical signs and symptoms. Diagnostic ability varies considerably between and among examiners, and, consequently, the accuracy of the diagnosis can be questioned. Root caries is a disease for which there are several clinical signs (location, color, surface texture, and surface ...

Root surface caries: a recurrent dilemma*
Australian Dental Journal, 1986AbstractRoot surface caries, as a separate entity, has been recognized for a long time. It appears to be related to an altered bacteriology where some actinomyces strains allow decalcification of the cementum and dentine at a higher pH than the Streptococcus mutans usually associated with active caries.

American journal of dentistry, 1996
This paper discusses the influence of changes in population characteristics on root caries and re-examines the epidemiology of the disease. The difficulties in interpreting the available data on the prevalence and incidence are high-lighted and the last decade of studies are summarized in table form.
