Inclusion Criteria

Eligibility Criteria
Participants data will be included in this study if they meet the following criteria:
(1)they have a completed dental examination at the 5-year-old study visit,
(2)an intraoral scan was completed at the same appointment as the dental examination.
Inclusion Criteria
Tooth surfaces will be eligible for scoring and analysis if they:
(3)have been examined as part of the dental exam,
(4)are a primary tooth
(5)are visible on the 3D image, and,
(6)consent was provided for analysis of dental data.

Exclusion Criteria

Exclusion Criteria
Tooth surfaces will be excluded from on-screen visual assessment if they are:
(1)restored or sealed
(2)crowned
(3)the tooth surface visibility on the 3D image is impeded by calculus, debris, or plaque
(4)there is less than 1/3 of the surface visible due to insufficient/missing scan data.
Tooth surfaces will be excluded from the application of the automated caries scoring algorithm if they are:
(1)restored or sealed
(2)crowned
(3)are not a primary molar occlusal surface
(4)there is less than 1/3 of the surface visible due to insufficient/missing scan data.
