Study group included 96 surfaces (48 teeth obtained from dental extractions for orthodontic or periodontal reasons). The were examined by examen examen. A assessment performed as gold standard. sensivity specificity values calculated analysed using McNemar test, significance threshold p 0.05. Results. Significant statistical differences when comparing both sensitivity radiological detection method compared (p=0.0001 0.05). inter-examiner reproducibility regarding examination 0.983 0.814, respectively, statistically significant. Conclusions. conventional has proven have a significantly higher validity in detecting incipient lesions case shown very high level agreement, than Conventional radiography can be successfully used diagnosing lesions, but always corroborated data through examination.

The development of laser technology has revolutionized dentistry, offering complementary and alternative approaches to traditional techniques. Lasers have been successfully integrated into various dental procedures, enhancing treatment outcomes patient care. Several types lasers can increase the acid resistance enamel, thus preventing caries. Laser fluorescence utilized for pre-operative diagnosis caries, enabling early detection effective planning. therapeutic application in caries aligns with contemporary philosophy minimally invasive procedures. Clinicians use Doppler flowmetry as a supplementary tool pulp vitality testing by detecting pulpal blood flow. are also employed pulp-related interventions, such managing dentine hypersensitivity performing root canal therapy. These procedures benefit from precision reduced invasiveness provided technology. Furthermore, serves an additional subgingival calculus detection. High-power low-power used both nonsurgical surgical therapies treat periodontal peri-implant diseases, oral mucosa conditions, even cancer based on their specific properties. accelerate bone regeneration, promote adhesive strength, remove ceramic brackets. In summary, significantly impacted dentistry facilitating diagnosis, treatments, precise operative ultimately improving expanding scope practice.

The early detection of dental caries is crucial for successful care. New intraoral scanners using near-infrared irradiation (NIRI) technology track preventive lesions without ionizing radiation. This study aimed to evaluate the performance (IOSs) in detecting proximal primary posterior teeth, compared conventional methods such as loupes-assisted clinical exams and bitewing (BW) radiography. Fifteen examined tooth surfaces were used produce a total 60 scores by restorative dentistry consultant (RDC). categorized into caries-free (n = 5 × 4 exam methods) carious 10 subgroups.

Introduction: Clinical manifestations of molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH) can be confused with other developmental defects the enamel, complicating early diagnosis and appropriate treatment intervention. Case Report: This case report demonstrated that signs suggestive MIH defect in first molars were possible to identified on panoramic radiographs 3D cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans, before teeth erupted. The was proven eruption tooth. Conclusion: Panoramic radiography CBCT radiological alternative for identification MIH. However, should not routinely indicated due its higher radiation dose.
