SS-OCT images of occlusal caries obtained noninvasively (A1, B1) and corresponding histological view after cross-sectioning (A2, B2).

Enamel demineralization at occlusal fissure is imaged as increased brightness within the depth of DEJ (arrow 1). Presence of hidden dentin caries is depicted in SS-OCT as backscattering signal from the lesion boundary (B1). Lesion expand along the DEJ is imaged as a bright line (arrow 2).
