In recent years, air abrasion technique has been more acceptable than conventional drills in dental practices. For removal of stains and cavity preparation, air-abrasive jet shows promising results. To understand the process of removal of enamel and dentin, and the capability of the new process, an analytical model has been developed in the present work. The developed model predicts the rate of enamel and dentin removal using alumina as the abrasive material.References
