Accuracy of laser fluorescence in assessment of various caries removal techniques: an in vitro validation
The clinical determination of caries removal endpoint is based on a multifactorial decision. However, when selective removal of soft dentin is performed, especially with bioactive glass abrasion in deep caries lesions, higher cut-off points might be determined in laser fluorescence readings to decide further operative intervention.
