Abstract

We use optical coherence tomography (OCT) with probe to structurally image the tissue within the oral cavity. We have imaged the different types of healthy oral mucosa such as masticatory mucosa in gingiva and lining mucosa in buccal mucosa. OCT is able to differentiate between the various types of keratinized and non-keratinized mucosa with high resolution. OCT is also able to provide detailed structure information on clinical and dental research.
