Abstract: As a tool of three-dimensional imaging for small samples, Micro-computed tomography(Micro-CT) can obtain the information of their external and internal cross-section. It can also survey and analyze their internal structure through three-dimensional reconstruction. When applied in caries research, in contrast to previous studies, Micro-CT has its own advantages such as non-breaking the integrity of the sample and monitoring the dynamic change of caries process. This article reviewed the application and promising future of Micro -CT in caries research.

Key words: Micro-computed tomography, caries research, application
