Surface Structure of Hydroxyl Apatite from Fluorosis Enamel
Abstract: Fluorosis is a condition due to ingestion of excessive amounts of Fluor that can cause the change in teeth structure and strength. Currently, a poor explanation was available to describe the surface structure of crystal hydroxylapatite that contributes to influence the macro characteristic of fluorosis enamel. The objective of this research is to describe the surface structure of crystal hydroxylapatite (HA) in fluorosis enamel. Scanning Electron Microscopy/ Energy Disperse X-Ray …
