Imaging of demineralized enamel in intact tooth by epidetected stimulated Raman scattering microscopy [PDF]
Journal of Biomedical Optics, 2018 Stimulated Raman scattering microscopy (SRS) was deployed to quantify enamel demineralization in intact teeth. The surfaces of 15 bovine-enamel blocks were divided into four equal-areas, and chemically demineralized for 0, 8, 16, or 24 h, respectively. SRS images (spectral coverage from ∼850 to 1150 cm - 1) were obtained at 10-μm increments up to 90

International Journal of Dental Hygiene, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Oral dryness is common in persons with untreated obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) as well as in those using positive airway pressure (PAP). OSA with or without PAP treatment could therefore be a risk factor of dental caries. Objectives To describe and compare the prevalence of dental caries among persons with or without PAP‐treated OSA.
