Fluorescent Minerals Fluorite typically glows a blue-violet color under shortwave and longwave light. Some specimens are known to glow a cream or white color. Many specimens do not fluoresce. Fluorescence in fluorite is thought to be caused by the presence of yttrium, europium, samarium [3] or organic material as activators.

- Dental fluorosis, also called mottling of tooth enamel, is a developmental disturbance of dental enamel caused by the consumption of excess fluoride during tooth development. The risk of fluoride overexposure occurs at any age but it is higher at younger ages.xcessive fluoride can cause white spots and, in severe cases, brown stains, pitting, or mottling of the enamel. A tooth is no longer at risk of fluorosis after eruption into the oral cavity. At this point, fluorapatite is beneficial because it is more resistant to dissolution by acids (demineralization).

What Are Some Uses for Fluorite? Fluorite has three main types of industrial uses depending on its grade.Metallurgical grade fluorite is used in iron and steel production. Fluorite is used as a flux to lower melting points of molten metals and remove impurities such as phosphorus and sulfur. Every ton of metal produced requires 20 to 60 pounds of fluorite. Ceramic grade fluorite is used to make ceramics and specialty glassware.

Fluorite â The Ultimate Multi-Tasking Gemstone The name Fluorite comes from the Latin word for flux, which refers to a substance that promotes flowing and combining of other materials, especially minerals and metals. And in fact the mineral fluorite is used as a flux in making steel and other metals that require the removal of impurities.

When Do Babies Start Babbling Just when do babies start babbling? Typically by 3 months of age, your baby will begin to explore her voice by cooing and making soft pleasurable sounds. Coos are soft sounds, typically vowels. Between 3 and 6 months of age, those soft vocalizations become more distinct and a few consonants emerge. Typically those first sounds include m, b, p, and g.

Sapphire Sapphire occurs in many colors ranging from colorless to black. When a corundum variety is termed sapphire it indicates the blue variety. Any other color (except red, which is named ruby) will have a prefix before sapphire, such as yellow sapphire. Causes of color: 1  sapphire (blue) - charge transfer between Ti and Fe.

Fluorite A variety of fluorite, especially from Wölsendorf, Germany, that emits an odor of HF and ozone upon grinding due to the internal presence of free fluorine and calcium and the interaction of components with water upon grinding.

What Causes an Orange-Coated Tongue? A lack of vitamin B or folic acid can cause a tongue to take on a reddish or orange color. Geographic tongue is another condition that can cause the tongue to turn colors. Geographic tongue is a benign condition that causes the tongue to turn colors. It usually does not cause any other symptoms. To determine the true cause of a orange coated tongue, a person should seek the help of a physician or dentist. These professionals can properly diagnose and advise the right treatment.

Causes of color The causes of color can be divided into 4 different theories: 1  The Crystal Field Theory Transition metal compounds (malachite, almandine) - idiochromatic. Transition metal impurities (ruby, emerald, citrine, jade) - allochromatic. 2  The Molecular Orbital Theory Charge transfer (sapphire, iolite)

Fluorescence and Minerals at El Fenomeno Such impurities are called activators. Different activators can make the same mineral fluoresce in different colors. Different minerals require different activators, and in different quantities. There are also impurities, notably ferrous iron, that can prevent fluorescence despite the presence of an activator.

Dental fluorosis In its mild forms (which are its most common), fluorosis often appears as unnoticeable, tiny white streaks or specks in the enamel of the tooth. In its most severe form, tooth appearance is marred by discoloration or brown markings.he critical period of exposure is between 1 and 4 years old, and the child is no longer at risk after 8 years of age. The severity of dental fluorosis depends on the amount of fluoride exposure, the age of the child, individual response, weight, degree of physical activity, nutrition, and bone growth.

Tooth Whitening Aging makes teeth less bright as the enamel gets thinner and the dentin becomes darker. It is also possible to have stains inside the tooth. These are called intrinsic stains. For example, intrinsic stains can be caused by exposure to too much fluoride as a child while teeth are developing.

Fluorite Fluorite Group. Fluorite is found as a common gangue mineral in hydrothermal veins, especially those containing lead and zinc minerals. It is also found in some greisens, granites, pegmatites and high-temperature veins, and as a component of some marbles and other metamorphic rocks. Visit gemdat.org for gemological information about Fluorite.

Answers to Chapter 2 Review Questions Most crystal growth in nature is obstructed (not free), so crystals showing their characteristic, geometric forms are uncommon. 1  8. Impurities often cause the same mineral to have many colors. For example, fluorite can be purple, clear, or yellow, and quartz can be practically any color. 9.

Amethyst, topaz and smoky quartz-gemstone colors arising from color centers In its pure form, fluorite is transparent, but the hallmark purple of fluorite is caused by a flaw in the crystal known as a color center. Fluorite occurs in a wide variety of colors, and is also fluorescent. Purple fluorite.

FLUORITE Except in Fluorite they are of different colors. A fluorite crystal could have a clear outer zone allowing a cube of purple fluorite to be seen inside, or a single crystal of fluorite could have several different color zones. Many types of fluorite even glow under ultraviolet light. They're fluorescent. (Note: the term fluorescence was derived from the mineral name Fluorite) Typically it fluoresces blue but other fluorescent colors include yellow, green, red, white and purple. Some will even demonstrate phosphorescence.

Dental Fluorosis Causes, Symptoms & Treatment Causes and Symptoms of Dental Fluorosis. Excessive intake of fluoride causes dental fluorosis by damaging the cells that form the enamel, called ameloblasts. Damage to these cells results in a mineralization disorder of the teeth, whereby the porosity of the sub-surface enamel is increased.he damage that dental fluorosis causes to the teeth enamel is permanent and not reversible. Dental fluorosis treatment is targeting in hiding the discoloration of the teeth. Treatment options depend on the severity of dental fluorosis: 1  Tooth whitening-only for mild fluorosis cases.

OVERVIEW Although fluorosis can be cosmetically treated, the damage to the enamel is permanent. Common causes of fluorosis include: fluoridated drinking water (particularly during infancy), ingestion of fluoride toothpaste, use of fluoride tablets, and consumption of processed foods made with fluoridated water.ommon causes of fluorosis include: fluoridated drinking water (particularly during infancy), ingestion of fluoride toothpaste, use of fluoride tablets, and consumption of processed foods made with fluoridated water.

Dental Health and Tooth Discoloration Several diseases that affect enamel (the hard surface of the teeth) and dentin (the underlying material under enamel) can lead to tooth discoloration. Treatments for certain conditions can also affect tooth color. For example, head and neck radiation and chemotherapy can cause teeth discoloration.

Dental Health and Tooth Discoloration Antihistamines (like Benadryl), antipsychotic drugs, and drugs for high blood pressure also cause teeth discoloration. Dental materials. Some of the materials used in dentistry, such as amalgam restorations, especially silver sulfide-containing materials, can cast a gray-black color to teeth.
