Lesion activity assessment of early caries using dye-enhanced quantitative light-induced fluorescence
Abstract We aimed to determine whether dye-enhanced quantitative light-induced fluorescence (DEQLF), wherein porous structure of caries lesions is stained with a fluorescent dye, could quantitatively distinguish between active and inactive caries. A total of 126 bovine specimens were prepared to art...
