[The state of the dental hard tissues in persons under the influence of ionizing radiation (based on the data from infrared spectroscopy)].
A total of 27 teeth were examined in those subjects having been exposed to ionizing radiation in doses between 0.5 and 2.0 Gy, together with ten teeth of essentially healthy individuals. The enamel, dentine and cement mineral and protein contents were studied versus control with the aid of infrared spectroscopy techniques. It has been ascertained that in the teeth of patients presenting with dose loads there take place changes in the organic matrix. Amide I: amide II ratio tends to diminish toward contribution of Amide I. The mineral composition of the enamel reveals practically no changes under exposure to radiation. The dentine and cement display clear-cut changes in the mineral component. There appear absorption bands that belong to more soluble forms of calcium phosphate, which fact suggests an active destructive process in underlying hard tissues of the teeth, that gets intensified under exposure to ionizing radiation.
