No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The investigators aim will be to compare the diagnostic performance of clinical visual examination (ICDAS II), intraoral/bite wing radiography (BW), near infrared light transillumination (NIR-LT), and laser fluorescence (LF), in comparison to microcomputed tomography (micro-CT) for the detection of non-cavitated occlusal enamel and dentin caries in third molar teeth. Potential participants will be consecutively recruited.
