Adhesive penetration in human artificial and natural white spots.
Penetration of a liquid adhesive into human artificial and natural white spots, both acid-conditioned and nonconditioned, was studied. All artificial white spots showed penetration of the adhesive. Acid-conditioned natural lesions exhibited penetration to a lesser amount than in vitro lesions. Penetration in nonconditioned natural lesions was not apparent.
