    Area of Science:

    • Dentistry
    • Imaging Technology
    • Biomedical Engineering

    Background:

    • Evaluating root surface topography is crucial for diagnosing and treating periodontal diseases.
    • Current methods for examining root surfaces have limitations in visualizing fine details and calculus deposition.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce and evaluate a novel technique, density slicing and color coding, for examining root surfaces.
    • To assess the potential of this technique as an adjunct in dental evaluations.

    Main Methods:

    • Density slicing and color coding was applied to analyze root surfaces.
    • The technique was used to visualize root surface topography, including depressions and calculus characteristics.

    Main Results:
