(v. t.) A variety of glass, used in ornament, to cover a surface, as of metal or pottery, and admitting of after decoration in color, or used itself for inlaying or application in varied colors.
(v. t.) A glassy, opaque bead obtained by the blowpipe.

(v. t.) To lay enamel upon; to decorate with enamel whether inlaid or painted.
(v. t.) To variegate with colors as if with enamel.
(v. t.) To form a glossy surface like enamel upon; as, to enamel card paper; to enamel leather or cloth.
(v. t.) To disguise with cosmetics, as a woman's complexion.
(v. i.) To practice the art of enameling.

Example Sentences:
(1) A total of 555 caries lesions were registered on proximal surfaces, 49.1% being primary lesions in the enamel, 21.4% primary lesions into the dentin and 29.5% secondary lesions.
(2) These cells contained organelles characteristic of the maturation stage ameloblast and often extended to the enamel surface, suggesting a possible origin from the ameloblast layer.
(3) It was found that there is a significant difference in bond strengths between enamel and stainless steel with strength to enamel the greater.
(4) Enamel was exclusively present opposite well developed dentine.
(5) Data is available to support the early influences of enamel organ epithelium upon a responding mesenchyme in the determination of dental morphogenetic fields (Dryburg, 1967; Miller, 1969).
(6) To determine the influence of cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) adsorption on the wettability and elemental surface composition of human enamel, with and without adsorbed salivary constituents, surface-free energies and elemental compositions were determined.
(7) The 12-fluted bur caused no clinically identifiable marks on the enamel surface.
(8) Unaltered surface enamel of extracted human teeth was subjected to tests of resistance to dissolution in 10 mM acetic acid at pH 4.0 and 10 mM EDTA at pH 7.4 in a miniature continuous flow system.
(9) Secondary structural features of bovine amelogenin, a hydrophobic protein of developing enamel implicated in ename mineralization, are derived using 2D NMR spectroscopy in solution and molecular mechanics-dynamics studies.
(10) Several functional properties of MG1, MG2, and PRG have been examined, including their presence in two-hour in vivo enamel pellicle, binding to synthetic hydroxyapatite, lubricating properties, and interactions with oral streptococci.
(11) A thorough dental prophylaxis before acid-etching of enamel is often recommended.
(12) Changes of mineral content in the approximal enamel of the teeth were determined in situ with quantitative bite-wing radiography.
(13) On the fourth day of culture, the pre-ameloblasts achieved terminal differentiation into secretory ameloblasts, and enamel and dentin had already been deposited.
(14) This resulted in greater uniformity of abrasion over the enamel surface within the biopsy window area and better operator handling characteristics.
(15) The 33,000 molecular weight protease was also active against enamel proteins.
(16) Significantly more remineralization was observed in enamel samples treated with the toothpaste containing 2,500 ppm F compared to that containing 1500 ppm F. This result is consistent with the outcome of a recent caries clinical trial testing the same toothpastes and finding enhanced anticaries efficacy from the higher fluoride level.
(17) This demineralization was similar to enamel acid etched with 50% phosphoric acid for 2 mn.
(18) The data show that the structure of inner and outer enamel layers differ between these two carnivore species and that the enamel structure of the cat was most similar to that described in humans.
(19) Maturing enamel overlaid by either ruffle-ended or smooth-ended maturation ameloblasts showed similar Ca and P concentrations.
(20) Although the crystallite widths were similar in both AI and normal enamel, the AI teeth showed areas where the crystallite order and continuity appeared disrupted.
