This is a very cool and important project! I'm curious about how you and your mentor analyzed your data. How did you see the changes on the enamel? Is it visible on an x-ray (when I go to the dentist and they take an image of my mouth), and/or are there other ways to observe these changes? Or, did you come to identifying these three changes by observing observations stated in articles in the literature review you did?
