Notes
- This symposium report evaluates the achievements made in caries diagnostic research since the previous symposium held in 1992. The symposium aimed at presenting the state of the art of caries diagnostic methods, on presenting the links between caries diagnosis and subsequent treatment decisions and their effect on the treatment outcomes, particularly the quality of dental care. The variation among dentists in diagnosing (small) caries lesions and in treatment decision making is considerable. This has been explained by the imperfection of caries decision making tests, but also by making incorrect treatment decisions due to incorrect or partial understanding of diagnostic test parameters. Meta–analyses into the performance of caries diagnostic tests revealed that the available quantitative methods are very promising. It was concluded that these methods had high correlations with lesion depth. They were considered suitable to monitor small changes in lesions. Many obstacsel have been experienced in attempting to transfer the outcomes of diagnostic research into clinical practice and it was concluded that caries diagnosis researchers should co–operate with manufacturers to introducing valid new diagnostic tools to the market. Main research priorities for the coming 10 years are to conduct cost–effectiveness and cost–utility studies of caries diagnostic tools, to continue to review the performances of diagnostic tests, to transfer diagnostic knowledge and experience to the general practitioners particularly by constructing evidence–based clinical guide–lines, to study the relationship between diagnosis and treatment decision, and to assess the effect of diagnostic and treatment decisions on the outcome of care.
