1. Application of two fluorescence methods for detection and quantification of smooth surface carious lesions
Abstract : Early diagnosis of carious lesions is a key factor in prevention and management of dental caries. With non-invasive, quantitative diagnostic methods it should be possible to detect lesions at an initial stage and subsequently monitor lesion changes over time during which preventive measures are introduced.

2. Evaluation of the DIAGNOdent method for detection and quantification of carious lesions : in vitro and in vivo studies
Abstract : The sites most susceptible to dental caries are the occlusal surfaces and the margins of existing restorations. These are also the sites at which lesion detection by conventional methods is most unsatisfactory. READ MORE

5. Oral Disease and Health Patterns : Dental and Cranial Paleopathology of the Early Iron Age Population at Smörkullen in Alvastra, Sweden
Abstract : In skeletal remains of ancient populations, evidence of dental and craniofacial pathology is often well preserved in the form of lesions on the teeth or bones. Meticulous, detailed recording of these lesions provides baseline data on which a realistic assessment can be made of the probable impact of dental diseases and its sequelae on health of these earlier populations.
