Objective. To assess the ability of multivariate models and single factors to correctly identify
future caries development in pre-school children and schoolchildren/adolescents. Study …

Background Proximal dental lesions, limited to dentine, are traditionally treated by invasive
(drill and fill) means. Non‐invasive alternatives (eg fluoride varnish, flossing) might avoid …

Objectives: The objectives of the present study were to assess the prevalence rate of caries
on individual permanent tooth surfaces, and to compare individual tooth surface caries rates …

Background Dental caries is a sugar‐dependent disease that damages tooth structure and,
due to loss of mineral components, may eventually lead to cavitation. Dental caries is the …

Tooth anatomy is fundamental knowledge used in everyday dental practice to reconstruct
the occlusal surface during cavity fillings. The main objective of this project was to evaluate …

Abstract Background The European Academy of Paediatric Dentistry (EAPD) encourages
prevention and arrest of active dental caries. Therefore, the present guidance provides …
