Quantitative Evaluation of Simulated Enamel Demineralization and Remineralization Using Photothermal Radiometry and Modulated Luminescence

Detection modalities that can evaluate the early stages of dental caries are indispensable. The purpose of this thesis is to evaluate the efficacy of photothermal radiometry and modulated luminescence (PTR-LUM) to non-destructively detect and quantify simulated enamel caries. Two experiments we...
