MELBOURNE, Australia: Intra-oral scanners are emerging as efficient, scalable tools for detecting dental caries in children, offering a promising alternative to visual examination. The integration of fluorescence technology has further enhanced their diagnostic capabilities, though most evidence to date comes from adult populations. A recent study has therefore evaluated the diagnostic agreement between visual examination and assessments based on intra-oral scans—with and without fluorescence data—for caries detection in primary teeth. The findings demonstrated high agreement with visual inspection and value of fluorescence in detecting early-stage lesions.
