Digital bitewing radiography, sensor-based (CCD/CMOS) vs Histological validation of dental tissues (gold standard)

Diagnostic accuracy for proximal caries detection (caries detection level) · Extracted permanent posterior teeth with proximal surfaces (in vitro)

Under in vitro conditions, sensor-based digital bitewing radiography had a pooled diagnostic odds ratio of 5.01 (95% CI 2.83, 8.88) for proximal caries detection at the caries detection level; ungraded.

Digital bitewing radiography, sensor-based (CCD/CMOS) vs Histological validation of dental tissues (gold standard)

Diagnostic accuracy for proximal caries detection (dentin detection level) · Extracted permanent posterior teeth with proximal surfaces (in vitro)

Under in vitro conditions, sensor-based digital bitewing radiography had a pooled diagnostic odds ratio of 12.84 (95% CI 6.56, 25.13) for proximal caries detection at the dentin detection level; ungraded.
