Promoting the remineralisation of subsurface caries lesions

项目目标：开发促进牙釉质病变再矿化的方法。这项与Rineova合作的项目将探索电化学沉积方法，以诱导牙釉质病变的再矿化，旨在修复牙齿。该项目将专注于电子显微镜和光谱技术(扫描电子显微镜、电子显微镜、X射线衍射仪、傅立叶变换红外光谱、拉曼光谱)，以研究羟基磷灰石在牙釉质上的电化学沉淀机制，以及改善牙齿再矿化和修复的方法。这个项目是化学学院、牙科学院和雷米诺娃共同完成的。

Project Aim: To develop methods to promote the remineralisation of lesions in tooth enamel.This collaborative project with Reminova will explore electro-chemical deposition methods to induce the remineralisation of lesions in the tooth enamel, aiming for the repair of the tooth. The project will focus on electron microscopy and spectroscopic techniques (SEM, TEM, XRD, FTIR, Raman) to investigate the mechanisms of electro-chemical precipitation of hydroxyapatite on enamel and methods to improve the remineralisation and repair of the tooth. This project is a collaboration between the School of Chemistry, the School of Dentistry and Reminova.
