Abstract

<p>In periodontal therapy, assessment of periodontal tissues is important before, during, and after therapy. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-contact, non-invasive, high-resolution imaging technique that can be used to create cross-sectional images of periodontal hard and soft tissues. In this article, the history of OCT application for the observation of periodontal tissues is reviewed and the potential of OCT as a diagnostic technique in periodontal therapy is discussed.</p>
