in the mechanical properties of dentin are mineral content-dependant as
the collagen makes no significant contribution to the overall hardness
and elastic modulus of dentin. 67 The mechanical properties of dentin
collagen remain constant across the dentin, of which dehydrated collagen
has considerably higher hardness (0.2 GPa) and elastic modulus (2 GPa)
compared to the elastic modulus of hydrated collagen (381 kPa). 67 Indeed
