Fissure caries specifically refers to dental decay that occurs in the deep grooves and pits found on the chewing surfaces of the back teeth (molars and premolars). These areas are harder to clean effectively, even with good brushing and flossing, making them prime locations for bacteria to thrive and form cavities.

Dental fluoroscopy is an advanced imaging technique used to detect cavities long before they are visible during a routine exam. This method can help identify fissure caries at an early stage, when the decay is still confined to the enamel and has not spread into the deeper layers of the tooth.
