15
What's the earliest clinical sign of dental caries?
White spot.
16
What are the 4 classical zones of a white spot lesion?
1. Surface Zone: High concentration of mineral.
2. Body of lesion. Principal area of demineralization.
3. Dark zone:
4. Translucent Zone: Furthest away.
17
What constitutes as ECC?
A child less than 6 years or 71 months with 1 or more decayed, missing (from caries) or filled tooth surface in any primary tooth.
18
What constitutes as severe ECC?
Child less than 3 with any sign of smooth surface caries.
Or chlide 3-5 yr with 1 or more cavitated, missing, or filled smooth surfaces in MX anterior teeth or DMFS score, greater than 4 at age 3, 5 at age 4 and 6 at age 5.
19
Why are primary teeth at greater risk for caries?
Thinner enamel and dentin. Larger pulp, closer to surface, reached more rapidly. Flat broad contacts that are harder to clean.
