ICDAS is a standardized system dentists use to describe tooth decay (dental caries) based on what they can see on the tooth surface. It helps record early changes in enamel as well as obvious cavities in a consistent way. ICDAS is commonly used in dental clinics, dental schools, research studies, and community screening programs. It supports clearer communication between clinicians and more consistent charting over time.
