Performance of Fluorescence-based Systems in Early Caries Detection: A Public Health Issue.
Performance des systèmes basés sur la fluorescence dans la détection précoce de la carie: un problème de santé publique.
Résumé
Modern clinical caries management involves early stage caries diagnosis and should fit with dental health policy. The objective of this study was to achieve early caries detection in enamel and dentine with a laser-based system (DIAGNOdent™ pen) first and secondary with a new fluorescence intra-oral camera (Soprolife®). A visual inspection with a loupe was used as control.
