Summary statistics for combined measures DEJ width estimates.
| Measure | Method 1 (μm) | Method 2 (μm) | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mean | Std. Err. | 95% CI | Std. Dev.(1) | Mean | Std. Err. | 95% CI | Std. Dev.(1) | |
| Indentation | 6.4′ | 0.63 | 4–9 | 1.8 | 4.6 | 0.60 | 2–7 | 1.1 |
| Raman | 7.8 | 0.86 | 4–11 | 2.9 | 8.3 | 0.74 | 5–12 | 2.7 |
(1)The Standard Deviation (Std. Dev.) was computed using measured DEJ widths. Other measures were computed using widths estimates that employed a linear model which adjusted for multiple measurements on the same tooth and combined measurements using the same instrumentation device (hardness and modulus or Raman 960 cm−1 and 2900 cm−1 peaks).
