[The Caridex System for removal of dental caries. Clinical trial].

The Authors show the results of clinical tests of the Caridex system performed on adults between the ages of 15 and 60 years under the treatments of the Hospital's Odontological Division of the Pavia University. On this ground, after considering the advantages and disadvantages that the chemo-mechanical removal offers to the patient, the Authors show the real indications asserting that this system, even if is not able to supplant the traditional methodologies, it can be helpful if mixed with them and, in limited cases, it can completely replace the drill.
