<title>Detection of early stages of dental caries by optical PNC diagnostics: comparison with visual inspection, dental probe, and x-ray methods</title>
Abstract:In this research results of approbation ofthe optical PNC-method in dental clinic are presented. The PNC-method was used for diagnostics stages of caries (initial, moderate and deep). The variant of the PNC-method adapted for dental diagnosis is based on simultaneous analyses the following parameters by special algorithms: probing radiation, stimulated backscattering and auotofluorescence of caries induced batteries. Analyze of informational signals show good correlation with tooth morphological structure and … Show more
