Cover Story: The detection and assessment of dental caries, especially at an early stage, are essential for the prevention and management of dental caries. The advances in digital diagnostic technologies have significantly facilitated the detection of dental caries. This review aims to provide an overview of digital diagnostic aids for the clinical detection of dental caries, particularly those at an initial stage. Currently available digital diagnostic aids for caries detection can be classified into four categories according to the initial source of energy, including radiation-based aids, light-based aids, ultrasound-based aids, and electric-based aids. In addition, many novel digital diagnostic aids for caries detection are still under development with promising results in laboratory settings. View this paper
