1. Non-destructive assessment of inhibition of demineralization in dental enamel irradiated by a = 9.3-µm CO2 laser at ablative irradiation intensities with PS-OCT

    www3.interscience.wiley.com (Jun 21 2008) Dentistry Explore Article

    Background and Objective Polarization sensitive optical coherence tomography (PS-OCT) has great promise for the non-destructive assessment of the efficacy of anti-caries agents such as fluoride and thermal laser treatments on enamel surfaces. The purpose of this study was to demonstrate that PS-OCT can be used to measure demineralization in craters/incisions prepared in enamel by a CO2 laser operating at the high irradiation intensities required for cavity preparations. Materials and Methods ... (Read Full Article)

  2. High-resolution Ps-oct of enamel remineralization

    SPIE Digital Library (Feb 11 2008) Dentistry Explore Article

    Anna M. Can, Cynthia L. Darling, and Daniel Fried Previous studies have demonstrated that Polarization Sensitive Optical Coherence Tomography (PS-OCT) can be used to image the remineralization of early artificial caries lesions. However, the depth resolution of the imaging system employed in those previous studies was limited and the outer surface ... [Proc. SPIE Int. Soc. Opt. Eng. 6843, 68430T (2008)] published Mon Feb 11, 2008. (Read Full Article)
