Table 1. Mean and standard deviation of the integrated mineral loss (ΔZ, %vol.μm) and the lesion depth (LD, μm) of dentin carious lesions produced using static and semi-dynamic models (microcosm biofilm, 5 days).
| Models | ΔZ (%vol.μm) | LD (μm) |
|---|---|---|
| Static | 4355±685a | 160.3±16.7a |
| Semi-dynamic | 3469±545b | 129.3±13.2b |
*Different letters in the same column show significant differences the models (ΔZ: Unpaired T test, p=0.0002. LD: unpaired T test, p<0.0001, n=18). Higher values mean more demineralized lesions
