Abstract
A torsion thermobalance was used for a continued investigation of tooth material. The results confirmed the author's previous findings about water, possible crystalline water, protein, and the unknown phase at about 750 C that is considered a double carbonate of calcium and magnesium. CaCOs and MgCOs were not detected; the limit of detection is 0.25 and 0.50%, of weight, respectively.Keywords
