Enhancing Enamel Microhardness: Impact of Boron-Doped Nano-Composite

Posted: November 21, 2024
This study examined the effect of boron-doped hydroxyapatite-chitosan nano-composite on the microhardness of demineralized enamel. Different concentrations of boron were tested, showing significant improvements in microhardness compared to the control group. The highest microhardness was observed with 15% boron concentration. SEM results supported these findings, indicating enhanced enamel surface mineralization. The study highlights the potential of boron in increasing the microhardness of demineralized enamel, with 15% boron content showing the most promising results.
