Mechanisms of Enamel Dissolution in Acid Buffers.
A quantitative understanding of the mechanism of human dental enamel dissolution in buffers is important because it should lead to a clear description of the causative factors in caries formation, and it can be profitably employed in the design of meaningful screening methods for potential anti-decay agents. Gray' has reported studies on enamel dissolution, concluding that the rates of dissolut...
متن کاملKinetics and mechanism of hydroxyapatite crystal dissolution in weak acid buffers using the rotating disk method.
The model given in this report and the rotating disk method provide a useful combination in the study of dental enamel and hydroxyapatite dissolution kinetics. The present approach is a significant improvement over earlier studies, and both the ionic activity product that governs the dissolution reaction and the apparent surface dissolution reaction rate constant may be simultaneously obtained....
متن کاملCombinatorial localized dissolution analysis: Application to acid-induced dissolution of dental enamel and the effect of surface treatments.
A combination of scanning electrochemical cell microscopy (SECCM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) is used to quantitatively study the acid-induced dissolution of dental enamel. A micron-scale liquid meniscus formed at the end of a dual barrelled pipette, which constitutes the SECCM probe, is brought into contact with the enamel surface for a defined period. Dissolution occurs at the interface...
متن کاملHigh-speed atomic force microscopy of dental enamel dissolution in citric acid.
High-speed atomic force microscopy (HS AFM) in 'contact' mode was used to image at video rate the surfaces of both calcium hydroxyapatite samples, often used as artificial dental enamel in such experiments, and polished actual bovine dental enamel in both neutral and acidic aqueous environments. The image in each frame of the video of the sample was a few micrometers square, and the high-speed ...
متن کاملEffects of buffering properties and undissociated acid concentration on dissolution of dental enamel in relation to pH and acid type.
To quantify the relationships between buffering properties and acid erosion and hence improve models of erosive potential of acidic drinks, a pH-stat was used to measure the rate of enamel dissolution in solutions of citric, malic and lactic acids, with pH 2.4-3.6 and with acid concentrations adjusted to give buffer capacities (β) of 2-40 (mmol·l(-1))·pH(-1) for each pH. The corresponding undis...
