Early detection of occlusal caries by measuring the electrical resistance of the tooth

G E White et al. J Dent Res. 1978 Feb.

Abstract

The tooth resistance measuring instrument was compared to the traditional method of the explorer examination for the detection of occlusal carious lesions. The findings of the instrument were more sensitive as compared to the traditional method when verified by a histological examination.
