AbstractBackground: This study aimed to evaluate microhardness and chemical analysis of carious and caries-affected dentine. The hypothesis tested was that calcium:phosphorous (Ca:P) ratios correlate with microhardness values. Methods: Four carious human third molars were sectioned through the caries lesion in the mesiodistal longitudinal plane. One half of each lesion underwent carious dentine removal using Carisolv™ gel. The cut surfaces were polished, microhardness tested using an Ultra-Micro-Indentation System (UMIS) and elemental analysis performed using energy dispersive analysis of x-rays (EDAX). Results: The microhardness of carious dentine decreased gradually towards the cavity floor, but that for caries-affected dentine showed more variation with depth, having a mean hardness of (0.63±0.18) GPa. Ca:P ratios of carious dentine varied among the four specimens. The mean Ca:P ratio of caries-affected dentine was 1:2.03±0.08. The hypothesis was accepted for active lesions. Conclusions: The use of Carisolv™ to excavate carious tissue can be as effective as rotary instrumentation.
