  • Title: Ceramic hydroxylapatite as a plaque growth and drug screening substrate.
    Author: Jarcho M, O'Connor JR, Paris DA.
    Journal: J Dent Res; 1977 Feb; 56(2):151-6. PubMed ID: 264882.
    Abstract:
    A new polycrystalline form of hydroxylapatite, CHA, has been shown to closely mimic dental enamel, in vitro, in regard to rate and degree of plaque formation and effectiveness of antiplaque drugs. The material has successfully been exploited as a standardized hydroxylapatite plaque growth substrate in conjuntion with a mass antidental plaque drug screening program.
