[Non-invasive method of measuring dentin resistance to the limit of the preparation depth].
Electrical resistance measurements may be used to determine the situation of the pulp horn tips of teeth prepared for crown restorations. The resistance value recorded for these sites of minimum dentin thickness depends on the thickness of the dentin layer and the degree of tooth development. A resistance value of 25 k omega revealed dentin thickness of 0.7-1.45 mm. The teeth of younger patients had thicker dentin layers than those of older patients.
