A Study to Compare Caries Detection in the Pediatric Population Between the iTero Element 5D System and Bitewing Radiographs

"The iTero Element 5D is an intra-oral scanner that incorporates near-infrared illumination capabilities used to provide a near-infrared image of the teeth enabling the detection of both occlusal and proximal caries, at the various stages, ranging from initial enamel caries to established caries reaching the DEJ.~Near-infrared Imaging (NIRI) is a nonionizing imaging technology that leverages differences in scattering and absorption of near-infrared light depending on the degree of tooth mineralization."
