Restoring proximal caries lesions conservatively with tunnel restorations [PDF]
Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dentistry, 2013 The tunnel restoration has been suggested as a conservative alternative to the conventional box preparation for treating proximal caries. The main advantage of tunnel restoration over the conventional box or slot preparation includes being more conservative and increasing tooth integrity and strength by preserving the marginal ridge.

Specifics of proximal caries and their diagnostics in posterior teeth [PDF]
Current Issues in Pharmacy and Medical Sciences, 2015 Proximal surfaces are the second in turn after the occlusal surfaces, as being the most exposed places to the carious process. The specificity of changes and location makes the diagnostic of approximal cavities difficult.

Management of Proximal Caries That Are Not Clinically Detectable [PDF]
Interdental Jurnal Kedokteran Gigi (IJKG)Introduction: Tooth decay is one of the most common dental diseases. Clinical examination alone is not sufficient to detect carious lesions. Additional diagnostic support, such as radiographic imaging, is necessary to aid in establishing an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment plan.

The non-operative resin treatment of proximal caries lesions
Dental Update, 2012 Epidemiological data show that the prevalence of caries on proximal surfaces in need of operative treatment is very high around the world, both in the primary and the permanent dentition. This article presents two new treatment methods: proximal sealing and proximal infiltration.

Enhancement of early proximal caries annotations in radiographs: introducing the Diagnostic Insights for Radiographic Early-caries with micro-CT (ACTA-DIRECT) dataset [PDF]
BMC Oral HealthBackground Proximal caries datasets for training artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms commonly include clinician-annotated radiographs. These conventional annotations are susceptible to observer variability, and early caries may be missed.
