Welcome to Dental TV Literature review with Dr. David Alleman, DDS. Pairing the clinical tutorials of Dental TV with the research-backed protocols taught at the Alleman Center of Biomimetic Dentistry, this video series introduces doctors to foundational research that will help improve outcomes in their practice.
In this episode, Dr. Alleman discusses the work of Takao Fusayama, a pioneer in caries detector dye research. To quote Fusayama, “…the determination of hardness by hand is an indefinite, subjective matter, and can never be an objective guide for caries removal. It is quite surprising that we dentists have, up to now, performed caries treatment, our most important professional duty, while relying on such an ambiguous means of detection which has no scientific basis.”
Dentists today can benefit from Fusayama’s research by using caries detector dye to standardize their caries treatment.
