The diagnosis of incipient proximal caries remains a major challenge for dentistry, mainly due to the impossibility of visual access during the clinical examination, and imaging methods play an important role as an aid to diagnosis of these lesions. The aim of this study was to evaluate the guidelines for the diagnosis of proximal caries' image through a systematic review of the literature produced at the last five years.
