  5. 3. Studies on oral clearance of citric acid and its effect on enamel erosion

    Author : Enas Badawi Bashir; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : Citric acid; Saliva; Site specificity; Degree of saturation; In vitro model; Flow rate; Enamel erosion; Clearance rate; Frequency; Microradiography; Scanning microscopy;

    Abstract : Citric acid in foods is one of the most important factors causing erosionof enamel. The aims were to study citric acid clearance from the oral cavity, the effect of the clearance on the salivary saturation with respect to hydroxyapatite (OHAp) and the effect of the clearance rate and frequency of the citric acid challenges on enamel erosion.
