“…Some studies have shown the value of bitewing radiographs in detecting initial proximal caries, however in the current study we were unable to establish this correlation, due to the low number of cases exhibiting clinical initial proximal caries. The results of our study, is in conjunction with those by Marquezan et al [19] as well as Bertella et al [20] who suggested that the lack of association between enamel changes associated with initial proximal caries and radiolucency could be attributed to issues related to the sample size and statistical power.…”

ICDAS (International Caries Detection and Assessment System) is an evidence-based detection and assessment system classifying stages of the caries process on the basis of histological extent and activity. The ICDAS measures the visual surface changes which corresponds to the potential histological depth of carious lesions. In addition, it proposes the ICDAS radiographic scoring system, which categorizes lesions according to the depth of caries demineralization into enamel and dentin represented by a radiolucency on the radiographs. In this study, the aim was to assess the relationship between clinical and radiographic caries diagnoses among 12 to 14-year-old Egyptians using the ICDAS scoring system which differentiates between cavitated and non-cavitated caries lesions.

“…Previous studies conducted by our research group showed that most lesions would not demand restorative treatment, because no evident image in dentin was detected. 6,7 However, we recognize that the clinical aspect of some UDS may lead the dentist to opt for restorative treatment, mainly in the absence of a radiographic examination. Considering the lack of previous studies investigating this issue, the comparison of our results with those of other studies is not possible.…”

“…More recently, two clinical studies by our research group investigated the radiographic pattern of ICDAS 4 lesions in permanent posterior teeth of adolescents and young adults. 6,7 After 95 6 and 142 7 UDS were assessed, most cases of clinically detectable UDS were found to have either no radiolucent image, or an image restricted to the enamel-dentin junction. Therefore, according to these findings, most cases of UDS would not require restorative treatment.…”

“…37 Furthermore, the presence of a caries lesion radiographically does not imply the lesion is active, and thus use of radiographs alone for detection and treatment decision-making could increase the potential for over-treatment. 38,39 As the scope of practice for most dental hygienists does not include surgical or restorative intervention for caries lesions, dental hygienists will refer to a dentist for surgical/restorative intervention of caries lesions. 40 Therefore, it is important for the hygiene student to learn early on when referrals are necessary.…”

Objective Dental hygienists play a key role in dental caries prevention and management. As the evidence of dental caries risk, prevention, and management becomes more complex, it is essential that dental hygiene (DH) programs have a strong cariology curriculum. This project aimed to assess current cariology content in U.S. DH programs, how content is taught, and interest in development/implementation of a common/core cariology curriculum framework. Methods Directors of 336 U.S. DH programs were invited to participate in a voluntary online survey using Qualtrics. The survey consisted of 41 items including demographics, details about the program's cariology content, and how it was delivered, and items related to a core cariology curriculum. Results The overall response rate used for analyses was 27.3%. Some findings include: 61.6% stated their program had a defined cariology curriculum, 35.2% did not have an individual cariology course, 61.5% had preclinical hands‐on experiences in cariology, 79.7% are teaching management strategies related to salivary gland hypofunction, 68.3% are teaching use of silver diamine fluoride (SDF), and 64.2% felt cariology was adequately being taught. Only 17.7% are teaching the International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS) system. 87.3% indicated support for developing a core curriculum framework for teaching cariology in DH programs. Conclusions This study indicated that, although DH programs reported that cariology concepts are being taught both didactically and clinically, discrepancies between concepts taught and the literature exist. Therefore, there is a need to create a more standardized curriculum framework for all U.S. DH programs.
