Figure 5.

The effect of parameters affecting inhibitor production and degradation on the mineralization outcome. (A–C) The effect of decreasing 10-fold (A) or increasing 10-fold (B) the rate of inhibitor production (v₁). (C) Comparison of the mineralization lag time and degree in conditions affecting v₁to healthy mineralization. (D–F) The effect of decreasing 3-fold (D) or increasing 3-fold (E) the rate of inhibitor degradation (r₁). (F) Comparison of the mineralization lag and degree in conditions affecting r₁ to healthy mineralization. The same color scheme is used as in Figure 2.
