Enamel caries lesions are characterized by a loss of mineral beneath an apparently intact surface layer. The increased porosity within the lesion body causes the characteristic whitish appearance of these lesions. The presence of these white spot lesions in the buccal faces is often associated with areas of plaque. There is regular loss and deposition of tooth substance. And when the fall in pH is for extended period of time, there is dissolution of calcium and phosphate ion. But when pH is back to normal, deposition of ion from saliva occurs. If there is more dissolution than deposition, net loss of ion occurs, and this results in decalcification of tooth structure. This lesion appears as white spot .. Read More»
