OBJECTIVE To describe the dentin surface morphology of abrasion/erosion lesions and to chemically characterize in vivo samples of sclerotic dentin. METHODS Baseline polyvinylsiloxane impressions of eight in vivo caries-free lesions were taken. Dentin was collected from retention grooves for FTIR photoacoustic spectroscopic analysis. The cavity preparation was etched for 30 seconds with 37% phosphoric acid, rinsed, and dried. Impressions were taken of the etched surfaces. Epoxy resin dies were made of baseline and etched impressions, sputter-coated and examined at x1000 with the SEM. RESULTS Lateral dentin tubule orientation was observed at gingival margins and on occlusal walls. Open cross-sectional tubules were seen at the depth of the groove. The mineral/protein ratio in the FTIR/PAS spectra of in vivo unetched sclerotic dentin samples suggested an increased mineral content.

D008855 Microscopy, Electron, Scanning Microscopy in which the object is examined directly by an electron beam scanning the specimen point-by-point. The image is constructed by detecting the products of specimen interactions that are projected above the plane of the sample, such as backscattered electrons. Although SCANNING TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY also scans the specimen point by point with the electron beam, the image is constructed by detecting the electrons, or their interaction products that are transmitted through the sample plane, so that is a form of TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY.
