An apparatus and method for mineralising demineralised and hypo-mineralised biological material such as tooth or bone. The apparatus has a probe electrode for receiving a mineralisation agent and a counter electrode. It is also provided with means for controlling the electrical signal provided to the probe such that the extent of mineralisation of the biological material is controlled by modulating or changing the electrical signal provided by the probe based upon the measured output of the circuit formed from the probe, counter electrode and biological material. The electrical output provides a measure of the extent of mineralisation of the biological material which is compared with data from a reference technique which gives 3D structural information on an area of interest in the biological material.

L'invention porte sur un appareil et sur un procédé de minéralisation d'une matière biologique déminéralisée et hypo-minéralisée tel que de la dent ou de l'os. L'appareil est muni dune électrode sonde qui reçoit un agent de minéralisation et une contre-électrode. L'invention porte également sur un moyen destiné à commander le signal électrique fourni à la sonde de telle sorte que l'étendue de la minéralisation de la matière biologique est commandée par la modulation ou le changement du signal électrique fourni par la sonde en fonction de la sortie mesurée du circuit formé à partir de la sonde, de la contre-électrode et de la matière biologique. La sortie électrique fournit une mesure de l'étendue de la minéralisation de la matière biologique qui est comparée à des données provenant d'une technique de référence fournissant des informations structurelles en 3D relatives à une zone d'intérêt dans la matière biologique.
