  • Title: Calcium oxalate smear layer: mineralogical and crystallographic study.
    Author: Mongiorgi R, Tateo F, Monti S, Prati C, Bertocchi G.
    Journal: Boll Soc Ital Biol Sper; 1992 Feb; 68(2):99-103. PubMed ID: 1510836.
    Abstract:
    Different methods to reduce dentine hypersensitivity have been tested by means of oxalate treatments. Natural material (20 teeth) and commercial oxalates have been employed. As a result the dentinal tubules are filled by small crystals preventing dental disease. Permeability measurements have been performed in order to quantify results. The composition of the synthetic smear layer produced after oxalate treatment have been investigated by powder diffraction method suggesting calcium oxalate formation.
