A Mathematical Model for Dental Caries: A Coupled Dissolution-Diffusion Process

Demineralization of tooth mineral in the caries process was studied using a computer model that simulates a diffusion controlled dissolution process. The model consists of a two-compartment system. An acidic solution in the outer (“plaque”) compartment was assumed to be large in volume so that its c...
