Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Number of caries lesions indicated for operative treatment | At the baseline examination | Number of caries lesions that are indicated for restorative treatment, endodontic treatment or extraction. Indications for restorative treatment are a) caries lesions that are not cleanable due to undermining cavitation, b) symptomatic caries lesions, c) caries lesions that have caused so much tooth substance loss that the tooth no longer is in occlusion, d) caries lesions causing a significant aesthetic impairment and e) caries lesions that threaten tooth vitality. Extraction is indicated for caries lesions that cannot be restored well. Endodontic treatment is indicated for caries lesions that have caused irreversible pulpitis or necrosis of the pulp. |
| Primary | Number of teeth that have received operative treatment | 2 and 5 years after enrollment | The number of teeth that have received operative treatment will be composed by number of 1. teeth that have received a restoration, 2. teeth that have received endodontic treatment and 3. teeth that have been extracted. Each tooth will be counted only once. |
| Primary | Number of restored surfaces | 2 and 5 years after enrollment | The number of surfaces that have received a restoration. |
| Primary | Number of restored teeth | 2 and 5 years after enrollment | The number of teeth that have received a restoration. |
| Primary | Number of patients who have received a restoration | 2 and 5 years after enrollment | The number of patients who have received a restoration. |
| Secondary | Number of surfaces with caries lesions in ICDAS-subgroups | At the baseline examination | Detected in the study baseline examinations |
| Secondary | Number of teeth with caries lesion in ICDAS-subgroups | At the baseline examination | Detected in the study baseline examinations |
| Secondary | Number of patients according to maximal ICDAS-subgroup caries lesion | At the baseline examination | Detected in the study baseline examinations. |
| Secondary | Number of changes in restorative, endodontic and extraction treatment plan at surface-level | At the baseline examination | Change from visual-tactile examination to visual-tactile examination supplemented with bitewing examination. Will only studied in the arm visual-tactile caries examination and bitewing radiography. |
| Secondary | Number of changes in restorative, endodontic and extraction treatment plan at tooth-level | At the baseline examination | Change from visual-tactile examination to visual-tactile examination supplemented with bitewing examination. Will only studied in the arm visual-tactile caries examination and bitewing radiography. |
