Natural enamel caries in quinoline: Volumetric data and the pattern of infiltration

In conclusion, αd was the main predictor of quinoline infiltration, but it differed from the water volume with a small effect size, and the pore volume fraction with quinoline was much lower than previous estimates. Volume of oil infiltrated in enamel caries is presented for histological zones relevant for progress and reversal of caries. Oil infiltrated < 50% of the enamel pore volume and it is well correlated with permeability but not with mineral content.
