Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
In situ imaging of all tooth surfaces with the intraoral OCT probe and visualization of healthy/restored surfaces and carious/noncarious lesions.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
1. OCT imaging of all healthy/(initial)carious/eroded/defective tooth surfaces and their classification according to established standards (scoring).<br><br>2. OCT imaging of the tooth-restoration interface/treated tooth surface (all tooth surfaces) and quantitative assessment of interfacial gap formation (selective for enamel/dentin/cement) or caries infiltration/remineralization.
