Optical Coherence Tomography in Dentistry

Covers all areas of dentistry with an emphasis on clinical diagnostics that are only made possible by use of OCT. Shows readers the modern use of this method to characterize dental materials and its potential for exploiting information technology for noninvasive diagnostics. Explains in an accessible manner the practical approach of OCT for early, noninvasive diagnostics of oral diseases. Presents the technical basics of OCT in a background chapter but does not require this comprehension for the applied and practical chapters. Includes chapters on state of the art applications, including nanodentistry.
