INTRODUCTION |
Various caries risk prediction models have been developed in recent years. Cariogram, a software program that evaluates an individual's caries risk profile and illustrates it in graphic form, appears to classify patients more correctly than other risk prediction methods. |
OBJECTIVES |
The objective of this study was to determine the caries risk of a population by means of the Cariogram software and examine the relationships between the different variables used by the Cariogram and the risk of caries determined by this program. |
MATERIALS AND METHODS |
Data were collected from a sample of 48 young individuals by clinical and radiological examination, saliva sampling and a dietary questionnaire. The caries risk of each individual was then obtained by drawing up the Cariogram. |
