“…Of the 12 A-rated instruments and methods for physical oral health, six were designed for tooth structure (Table 1). Among them, three were aimed at occlusal (laser-based caries diagnostic systems, LF, and electronic caries monitoring with impedance spectroscopy analysis, ECM) [23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31] or approximal (fibre-optic transillumination method, FOTI) 32-36 caries detection. Reliability of all these methods was high, while sensitivity and specificity varied considerably ( Table 2).…”

Even though some instruments and methods exhibited good to excellent reliability and validity and can be recommended for research and clinical practice, they do not allow assessing all components of physical oral health. There is a need to identify and define standard instruments, and for components of physical oral health where methods with sufficient diagnostic performance are lacking, further research is required.
