| Popis: | The paper is concerned with the investigation of dental caries treatment by the modern method based on the application of special composite material that can diffuse into the damaged zone, harden by light and prevent tooth decay. Carious disease was modeled as a diffusion process of acid penetration from the oral cavity into the tooth enamel with further dissolution of dental hard tissues in the subsurface layer of enamel. The model of dental caries was mathematically formulated. The solution was obtained by a numerical method using MATLAB. It is shown that the proposed model adequately describes the properties of the examined dental system. |
