Popis:	A clinical study was conducted on 150 approximal surfaces which were positive for caries by fibreoptic transillumination (FOTI), and these approximal surfaces were examined with bitewing radiography. Of these 54.7% and 41.3% were diagnosable through bitewing radiography and clinical examination respectively. And it was clearly understood that FOTI was a reliable method in detecting approximal carious lesions.
