As infrared light is non-ionising, the method is safer than radiography, which involves X-rays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dental caries affect more than 90 per cent of the world&#8217;s adult population. And often, dental caries are detected &#8216;too late&#8217;, requiring invasive teeth treatment. Visual examination (by a dentist) and radiography are currently the main tools for diagnosing caries. However, they are not completely efficient for detecting caries in posterior teeth\u2014moreover, radiography is considered problematic for pregnant women and infants.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A promising alternative technique, which is non-invasive and does not involve X-rays, is optical coherence tomography (OCT)\u2014an imaging method that can be used to create a 3D representation of teeth.\u00a0<\/p><div class=\"bitem-article-desktop-720x300-in-text\" id=\"bitem-459706347\"><!-- Bite 720x300 [async] -->\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">if (!window.AdButler){(function(){var s = document.createElement(\"script\"); s.async = true; s.type = \"text\/javascript\";s.src = 'https:\/\/servedby.engagemedia.com.au\/app.js';var n = document.getElementsByTagName(\"script\")[0]; n.parentNode.insertBefore(s, n);}());}<\/script>\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\nvar AdButler = AdButler || {}; AdButler.ads = AdButler.ads || [];\r\nvar abkw = window.abkw || '';\r\nvar plc705185 = window.plc705185 || 0;\r\ndocument.write('<'+'div id=\"placement_705185_'+plc705185+'\"><\\\/'+'div>');\r\nAdButler.ads.push({handler: function(opt){ AdButler.register(165450, 705185, [720,300], 'placement_705185_'+opt.place, opt); }, opt: { place: plc705185++, keywords: abkw, domain: 'servedby.engagemedia.com.au', click:'CLICK_MACRO_PLACEHOLDER' }});\r\n<\/script><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, a team from Okayama University have tested the accuracy of OCT for diagnosing caries in posterior teeth\u2014publishing their findings in&nbsp;<em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nature.com\/articles\/s41598-020-72838-2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Scientific Reports<\/a><\/em>. They found that the method could indeed become a viable alternative for radiography.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In OCT, a sample is irradiated with infrared light; different types of tissue scatter and absorb the infrared radiation differently. Scattering\/absorption images (that are two-dimensional) obtained for many different irradiation angles can then be combined into a 3D visualisation of the sample. Because dental caries have a specific response to the radiation, they can be detected on the 3D image\u2014in principle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To check whether OCT is actually accurate enough for detecting caries in posterior teeth, the researchers compared radiography and OCT results for 51 proximal surfaces of 36 molars.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The study was performed ex vivo: the molars were mounted in silicone blocks in a way corresponding to their normal anatomical position. The degree of caries present on the surface was marked histologically with a score from 0 to 5, corresponding to \u2018sound tooth surface\u2019 and \u2018distinct cavity with visible dentin\u2019, respectively.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to make a quantitative comparison between radiography and OCT, certain parameters like sensitivity and specificity for the detection of caries were evaluated by 13 dentists. A statistical analysis then led to the conclusion that OCT appears to be a suitable method for diagnosing proximal enamel damage, and for following-up on whether non-invasive treatment\u2014typically based on stopping and reversing the demineralisation of the enamel layer\u2014is successful.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Japanese researchers have found that optical coherence tomography, an imaging method based on infrared radiation, can be used for detecting dental caries on the surface of rear teeth.
