title: [Acoustic histology of dental tissues].
abstract: New data on tooth enamel and dentin microstructure, obtained by acoustic microscopy methods, which are based on evaluation of distribution of the local elastic and mechanical properties, are presented. The results demonstrate that the acoustic microscopy methods are more sensitive to changes in mechanical properties of dental tissues in caries in comparison with optic microscopy.
