The detection of dental caries has undergone significant advancements over the past few decades, driven by the need for early diagnosis, accurate assessment, and more effective treatment planning. Early detection is critical for preventing further tooth damage, preserving tooth structure, and improving patient outcomes. Historically, caries detection relied on visual inspection, tactile examination, and radiographic imaging, but recent innovations have led to more sophisticated, non-invasive, and precise methods. While traditional methods like visual examination and radiographs remain important, advanced technologies such as laser fluorescence, Quantitative light-induced fluorescence, Optical coherence tomography, and Artificial Intelligence pave the way for more accurate, efficient, and non-invasive caries detection. These advancements not only improve the diagnosis and monitoring of caries but also contribute to more effective and personalised treatment strategies, ultimately leading to better dental health outcomes for patients.
