Methods for calculating the severity of demineralization on tooth surfaces from PS-OCT scans [PDF]

SPIE Proceedings, 2009
Several studies have demonstrated that polarization sensitive optical coherence tomography (PS-OCT) can be used to nondestructively measure the severity of subsurface demineralization in enamel and dentin. The reflectivity in the polarization state orthogonal to the initial linear polarization incident on the tissue is low at sound tissues interfaces ...

Prevalence of peripheral dental caries and diastemata in horses fed high‐carbohydrate diets

Equine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Background Peripheral dental caries and diastemata impair equine oral health. Diets rich in soluble carbohydrates are suspected risk factors, but few studies have assessed their impact. In Brazil, sugarcane is widely used as a forage source due to its availability and low cost.

Effect of different atmospheres on microcosm biofilm formation and tooth demineralization

, 2022
AbstractThis study evaluated the effects of different atmospheres on the cariogenic potential of microcosm biofilms. Ninety bovine enamel and 90 dentin specimens were allocated into three atmospheres: 1) microaerophilia (5 days, 5% CO2); 2) anaerobiosis (5 days, jar); 3) mixed (2 days microaerophilia and 3 days anaerobiosis), which were subdivided into

Imaging early demineralization on tooth occlusional surfaces with a high definition InGaAs camera [PDF]

SPIE Proceedings, 2013
In vivo and in vitro studies have shown that high contrast images of tooth demineralization can be acquired in the near-IR due to the high transparency of dental enamel. The purpose of this study is to compare the lesion contrast in reflectance at near-IR wavelengths coincident with high water absorption with those in the visible, the near-IR at 1300 ...

Grading in Gerodontology: A Framework

Gerodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Understanding and anticipating oral health deterioration in older adults requires more than describing their current oral and general health. Risk factors arising from oral, systemic and social domains strongly influence disease progression, care complexity and the ability to maintain function over time.

Potential Applications of Nano Silver Fluoride in the Prevention of Dental Caries in Older Adults: A Scoping Review

Gerodontology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dental caries remains highly prevalent in older adults and represents a growing public health concern due to increased tooth retention, polypharmacy, hyposalivation and functional limitations. Silver diamine fluoride (SDF) is widely used for caries arrest in this population but causes undesirable tooth staining. Nano Silver Fluoride

Antibacterial Phytate Loaded Hydrogel Inhibits Enamel Demineralization In Orthodontics

International Dental Journal
Aim or purpose: In this study, we propose to develop an antibacterial hydrogel QCS/OD/SP to inhibit enamel demineralization, which has been one of the most common complications of orthodontic treatment.
