Enamel and Its Interaction with the Oral Environment
Enamel, comprised of hydroxyapatite (HAP) units forming crystallites and rods, constitutes the structure of teeth. HAP is represented by the stoichiometric formula Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2. However, biological HAP, found in enamel, deviates from this stoichiometry due to deficiencies in Ca2+, PO43–, and OH–,...
