Detailed Description

The sample will be comprised of 141 patients between 3 to 10 year-old and 504 proximal surfaces of 12-to-17-year-old adolescents, who present at least one proximal surface with initial caries lesion. ...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Primary teeth: distal surface of the first molar, mesial surface of the second molar and distal surface of the second molar (when the first permanent molar is present) with initial caries lesion (ICDAS 1, 2 or 3).
  • Permanent teeth: distal surface of the first premolar, mesial surface of the second premolar, distal surface of the second premolar, mesial surface of the first molar, distal surface of the first molar and mesial surface of the second molar with initial caries lesion (ICDAS 1, 2 or 3).

Exclusion

  • Mesial surface of the first primary molar/premolar by the smaller contact with the distal surface of the canines. It will be also excluded the surfaces that show proximal restorations, sealants, cavities, defects, as well as intact teeth.
