The posteruptive formation of an acid-resistant layer of tooth enamel in hamsters was studied. It was found that such a layer is formed. The formation of the layer parallels the decrease in carious lesions of hamsters with age. It, was suggested that the hamster may be used to study ways of accelerating the formation of this layer in an attempt to find additional methods of caries control.
