Why it matters for dental
Researchers present a quantitative framework for modeling oral pH dynamics, giving clinicians and researchers a structured method to track acid-base shifts in dental plaque.
Key points
- 01
Journal of Dental Research publishes a new quantitative framework for characterizing oral pH dynamics.
- 02
Framework links acidogenic and aciduric microorganisms in dental plaque to pH drops that drive enamel and dentin dissolution below critical pH.
- 03
Article appears ahead of print in the Journal of Dental Research.
