[The Caridex system for removal of caries. SEM observations]

The Authors observed at the SEM the surface of the dentine treated with the Caridex system, comparing it with the one of cavities prepared with traditional systems. The use of chemo-mechanical system consents to obtain a more indented and cleaned surface, even if more or less covered by mineralized deposits that can be removed with the use of a detergent for cavities. It results a surface particularly proper to the use of adhesives fillings materials.
