Real-time observations of tooth demineralization in 3 dimensions using X-ray microtomography

Conclusions A successful method has been developed to monitor real-time demineralization in 3 dimensions. Further work is now needed to create better models of true carious lesions. Clinical Significance Observation of the dynamics of demineralization and remineralization will aid in the development of therapies to treat and prevent dental caries.
