Interproximal carious lesions, ICDAS II, radiographic diagnosisAbstract
Tooth decay refers to a condition characterized by progressive demineralization, through the first clinical manifestations, to loss of tooth structure itself. The diagnosis of dental caries was limited only to an endpoint, cavity and at last, tooth loss. Now days it is considered tooth decay as a whole disease process. The disease remains a public health problem. The correct diagnosis of dental caries is essential to diminish this problem, including difficult access areas like the interproximal carious lesions. Performing visual clinical diagnosis in the proximal surface is almost impossible, and in many cases false negatives are given in the diagnosis, so it is necessary to use complementary methods such as x rays.
In this study both the visual clinical method ICDAS II (International Caries Detection and Assessment System) and the radiographic diagnostic method where used. When performing visual clinical examination of the proximal surfaces of molars, orthodontic separators achieved temporary separation of the tooth, so it allowed a physical space to facilitate clinical evaluation and implemented ICDAS II as an instrument used for evaluating the severity levels of caries process in different areas; x rays were taken on the same tooth surfaces, valued with the visual clinical examination.
The main objective was to determine the prevalence of interproximal lesions in molars according to the criteria of assessment and detection of ICDAS II caries and its correlation with the diagnosis of the same injury observed with radiographic method. 18.7% Surfaces observed with clinical diagnostic method with orthodontics separators showed surfaces with carious lesions, while the radiographic diagnosis method presented 22.5% of surfaces with carious lesions; a strong association between visual clinical diagnosis and radiographic diagnosis, with a 91.1% probability of finding the same results with statistical significance, allowing a generalization of the results.
