Synchrotron microComputed Tomography of the mature bovine dentinoenamel junction

Fatigue induced changes in conical implant–abutment connections

“…After 100,000, 200,000 and 1 million cycles a synchrotron CT was performed as described previously [26,[28][29][30][31][32]. Table 1.…”

“…SRX analysis feature higher spatial resolution and material contrast as compared to laboratory based X-rays. SRX and Synchrotron-based micro-tomography (CT) allows for the detection of microgaps down to 0.1 m and thus the deviation of the position of assembled metallic components [29][30][31][32].…”

Synchrotron X-ray diffraction study of load partitioning during elastic deformation of bovine dentin

“…Recently this method has been applied to measure, during in situ compressive deformation, elastic strains in the HAP phase in canine and bovine bone [26][27][28][29] as well as in deer antler [30]. In teeth, however, synchrotron X-ray radiation has only been used for imaging and mineral density measurement via micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) [31][32][33][34][35][36][37].…”

Mineral distribution in highly fluorotic and in normal teeth: A synchrotron microcomputer tomographic study

“…They concluded that the spatial sensitivity of the method (a few lm) is not high enough to detect differences in mineral density [16]. Stock et al studied the dentin-enamel junction in sections of bovine teeth with a resolution of 1.5 lm in detail [6]. Ultrastructural features of human dentin were studied by Zabler et al with a resolution of 0.5 -1 lm using the novel method of Fresnel propagation in phase-contrast tomography at 22 keV [24].…”
