Digital imaging for diagnosing cavities, plaque, and gum disease

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational project collects routine clinical oral exams alongside digital images from panoramic radiography, intraoral scanners, and when indicated cone-beam CT to compare information each tool provides. Consent adult patients who are new to the practice or have not visited in the past six months will have their clinical findings and corresponding images recorded and archived. The design is non-interventional and excludes pregnant people, individuals under legal guardianship or curatorship, and patients with fixed orthodontic appliances. Analyses will describe how each imaging modality complements the visual exam for diagnosing caries, plaque, and periodontal disease and document workflow implications.
