![عکس صفحه اول مقاله: In-situ monitoring of dental erosion in tooth enamel when exposed to soft drinks In-situ monitoring of dental erosion in tooth enamel when exposed to soft drinks](/preview/png/1430831.png)
The prevalence of dental erosion and decay in human teeth has increased dramatically in the few decades as a result of an increasing consumption of soft drinks and commercial fruit juices. A simple weighting method is described for the in-situ monitoring of dental erosion in tooth enamel when immersed in a soft drink. When compared to the conventional method, this new method is far superior in terms of accuracy of data collected and the ease of data collection in real-time. Atomic absorption results suggest that the increasing weight loss in tooth enamel during dental erosion in soft drinks can be attributed to the continuous leaching of Ca2+ ions, in addition to phosphorus, oxygen, and hydrogen. The potential application of this new weighing technique in other research areas is discussed.
