Research Abstract |
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has a great potential for the non-destructive imaging of caries in vivo. On the other hand, principle of OCT image building is different from X-ray, so analysis of OCT images has need of reading image suitable for OCT. The purpose of this study was to examine the application of OCT for removal caries detection. From the results of this study, OCT was used to get scanning images of caries affected dentin and monitoring residual tooth thickness.
