Nondestructive assessment of the inhibition of enamel demineralization by CO2 laser treatment using polarization sensitive optical coherence tomography

1. Dennis J. Hsu, Cynthia L. Darling, Margarita M. Lachica et al. Studies have shown that lasers can be used to modify the chemical composition of tooth enamel to render it less soluble. The purpose of this study was to determine if polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography (PS-OCT) can be used to nondestructively assess the inhibition of demineralizatio ... [J. Biomed.
