Radiation-Free Cavity Detection Compared to X-rays
Part of Mouth & dental clinical trials.
This study compares a new, radiation-free scanner that finds cavities to traditional X-rays. It may help find tooth decay without using radiation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You have a tooth that is already scheduled to be removed.
- You have an X-ray showing the tooth to be removed and the nearby teeth.
- You are able to understand the study and sign a consent form.

This study looks at cavities on the surface of natural teeth. It aims to learn more about these cavities. You may join if you are at least 18, in good general health, need dental treatment, have at least 15 natural teeth with no crowns, and have at least one cavity that has reached the dentin (inner layer).
This study tests new digital technologies—including a special camera called DIAGNOcam and AI software—to detect tooth decay early and accurately. If you have some cavities and healthy teeth in specific areas of your mouth, you may be eligible to help researchers improve how dentists find and diagnose tooth decay.
This trial uses a special camera and 3D X-ray to detect dental plaque and cavities. It may help find a faster, more accurate way to diagnose tooth decay.
This study tests whether special 3D imaging and intraoral scanning tools can help dentists better identify tooth decay and plaque buildup. Researchers want to see if these new methods work well and could improve how cavities are diagnosed.
This trial tests a new light-based tool (near-infrared light) compared to traditional X-rays to find hidden cavities between baby molars. The goal is to see if the light method is better at spotting cavities and if kids like it more.
This study tests two different devices for finding cavities in adults at high risk for tooth decay, comparing how well they work against each other and standard methods.
