The ion permeability of bovine enamel membranes can be estimated from impedance spectroscopy. In this study the 6‐parameter model, a previously proposed operational description of the frequency dependence of the impedance of an enamel membrane is compared with a model which uses a Constant‐Phase‐Angle (CPA) element, and which is proposed as an onset to a more mechanistic description of enamel impedance spectra The model using the CPA element is shown to be a valid description for the measured impedance data. The parameter values for R 0 and ω max (the angular measuring‐frequency where the imaginary part of the membrane‐impedance is maximal) obtained using this model, confirm that these parameters can be employed as predictors for bovine enamel permeability.
