Abstract

A numerical model capable of simulating an illuminated tooth, with focus placed on the optical responses of white spot lesions, was established. In particular, a 3D tooth model was constructed from the buccal half of a maxillary first premolar, on which in vivo white spot lesions were created. Using this model, the physics of light-tooth interaction was successfully captured.
