[Systems for grading occlusal and approximal carious lesions]
Abstract
Well defined, graded caries diagnoses are necessary for recording caries and its progression, measurement of the efficacy of caries prophylaxis, and for the establishment of detailed information concerning the prevalence of caries. Monitoring of the severity of lesion or degree of caries should be based on well defined, reliable clinical or radiographical findings. Such criteria for occlusal and approximal caries are presented in this paper.
