Characterization of dentin and enamel by use of optical coherence tomography
1999
Applied Optics
Preserved Fulltext
Optical coherence tomographic images of human dentin and enamel are obtained by use of polarizationsensitive optical coherence tomography. A birefringence effect in enamel ͑ ϭ 856 nm͒ and light propagation along dentinal tubules are observed. The group index of refraction for both dentin and enamel was measured at 1.50 Ϯ 0.02 and 1.62 Ϯ 0.02, respectively.
