title: Detection of Occlusal Carious Lesion using the SoproLife®Camera: A Systematic Review.
abstract: The aim of this systematic review was to assess thein vivoscientific evidence regarding the ability of a recently developed light fluorescence device, SoproLife®(Sopro-Acteon group, La Ciotat, France) in detecting occlusal carious lesions. The PubMed database was searched forin vivotrials that evaluated the validity of the SoproLife®camera for the detection of occlusal carious lesions. Among the 11 articles originally identified with the keyword "Soprolife," only three articles were included. The three included surveys used the International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS)-II criteria as gold standard for the assessment of SoproLife®compared or not to other detection devices (DIAGNOdent®and Spectra Caries Detection Aid®). Two of the included studies reported only on permanent teeth or both primary and permanent teeth. The SoproLife®validity values varied markedly among studies with a sensitivity ranging between 0.43 and 0.95 and a specificity between 0.55 and 1. Interobserver reproducibility with the SoproLife®was reported in two of the three studies (0.98 and 0.72) and none of the studies reported about intraobserver reproducibility. No clear-cut conclusion can be made based on the three included clinical studies; furtherin vivoinvestigations are needed to confirm the validity of the SoproLife®camera in terms of detection of occlusal carious lesions.
