Caries Management by Risk Assessment: Results from a Practice-Based Research Network Study.

Abstract

Thirty dentists with clinical practices outside of a university setting were trained and calibrated successfully in DMFS and ICDAS-scoring. This randomized, controlled, parallel-arm, double-blind 2-year clinical trial with individual-level caries risk assignment of 460 patients to standard of care as control versus active CAMBRA treatment as intervention demonstrated that caries risk level, as well as caries disease indicators, were significantly reduced in the CAMBRA intervention group compared to the controls at all recall time points.
