ALG1,2 and Visual (ICDAS) columns were not merged correctly. The original Table

Histology
ALG1,2
ALG3,4
Visual (ICDAS)
SOUND
E0
: Sound
0: Sound
0: Sound
0: Sound tooth surfaces show no visible evi-dence of caries when viewed after cleaning and after 5 seconds of air-drying
ENAMEL
E1: Caries in the outer half of enamel
1: Caries in enamel
1: Caries in enamel
1: First visual change in enamel (opacity or discoloration) visible at the entrance of pit or fissure, seen after 5 seconds of air-drying
E2: Caries in the inner half of enamel—including the dentin–enamel junction (DEJ)
2: Distinct visual change in enamel (opacity or discoloration) visible when both wet and dry, with no evidence of surface breakdown or underlying dentin shadowing
DENTIN
D1: Caries in the outer third of dentin
2: Caries in the outer third of dentin
D2: Caries in the middle third of dentin
2: Caries in dentin
3: Caries in the middle or inner third of dentin
3: A white or brown spot lesion with localized enamel breakdown, without visible dentin exposure
4: Non-cavitated surface with an underlying dentin shadow, which obviously originated on the surface being evaluated
D3: Caries in the inner third of dentin
5: Visually distinct cavity in opaque or discoloured enamel and exposed dentin
6: Extensive (more than half of the surface) and visually distinct cavity with exposed dentin
