Objective: The aim of this research is to compare the clinical and radiographical
findings of proximal dental caries among adult patients attending IIUM Dental Clinic.
Methods: The method was prospective cross sectional study that was conducted on
69 adult patients attending IIUM Dental Clinic. For each patient, clinical charting was done
first without using radiograph by using double blind technique. After that bitewing
radiograph were taken. The radiograph was viewed from the computer and was assessed for
any radiolucency below the contact point either at mesial or distal part of the tooth. When
there was radiolucency present in the radiograph, the data were recorded even clinically
cannot be seen.
Results: Results revealed that from 69 patients, 171 teeth were detected with
proximal dental caries. Out of 171 teeth with proximal dental caries, 133 teeth were
detected by both clinically and radiographically while 38 teeth were detected by
radiographically only.
Conclusion: As a conclusion, there is significant different between clinical and
radiographical of proximal dental caries detection (P<0.05) |
