Abstract:
The present review paper summarizes the available technical methods for early detection and diagnosis of dental caries lesions, as well as their clinical application range, advantages and disadvantages. Although there are many detection systems supported by new technologies and equipments in clinical practice, current evidence suggests that careful clinical visual and inspection tests, in combination with imagological examination, are still the gold standard for the detection and diagnosis of dental caries.
