| Popis: | — Intra-oral tests of a fruit bar, a muesli bar and jelly beans were performed to establish their cariogenic potential by means of enamel hardness changes. Little difference was found when the fruit finger and muesli bar were compared. Surprisingly, the jelly beans did not produce a greatly increased degree of softening when compared with the fruit fingers. Statistical significance was not reached in either of the experiments carried out. |
