A multi-dimensional model for dental caries is applied to study the shape of caries lesions in a realistic tooth geometry and to examine the rate of progress of caries. An upgraded model, taking into account the outer prismless enamel layer, is derived and solved. The model demonstrates the importance of this layer in delaying the onset of caries. The conclusions are discussed in light of experimental results.
应用一种龋齿的多维模型来研究真实牙齿几何形状中龋损的形状,并检验龋齿的进展速度。推导并求解了一个考虑了无棱柱外层釉质的升级模型。该模型证明了这一层在延迟龋齿发作方面的重要性。根据实验结果对结论进行了讨论。
