Accuracy of an intraoral scanner with near-infrared imaging feature in detection of interproximal caries of permanent teeth: An in vivo validation.

Early detection of proximal caries is one of the most essential topics forming the basis of preventive dentistry. This study investigates a caries diagnostic tool integrated into intraoral scanners to diagnose interproximal caries. A caries diagnostic tool integrated into an intraoral scanner may prevent the harmful effects of ionizing radiation in early caries diagnosis and may improve the patient's oral health status.
