Abstract
Compressed apatite disks were used as models for tooth enamel. Their permselective properties were studied as functions of the pH of the gradient solutions, the composition of the apatites, and the pretreatments with anionic phosphate compounds and cationic proteins. The results are discussed in relation to the caries mechanisms.Keywords
