Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Caries progression. Timepoint: Before intervention, 3, and 6 months after intervention. Method of measurement: International caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS) according to Braga et al. (2009) will be used in clinical trial phase . D 0 - Sound D1 - First visual change in enamel (white spot opacity first visible change only after air drying: white, brown). D2 - Distinct visual change in enamel (white spot opacity distinct visible change without air- drying: white, brown). D3 -Localized enamel breakdown due to caries with no visible dentin (localized enamel breakdown surface integrity loss) D4-Non-cavitated surface with underlying dark shadow from dentin (underlying dark shadow +/- surface integrity loss) D5 - Distinct cavity with visible dentin. D6 -Extensive distinct cavity with visible dentin. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Caries increment, and Cost – effectiveness of interventions. Timepoint: Before intervention, 3 and 6 months after intervention. Method of measurement: Decay surfaces (DS, dt ) according to WHO (2013). Criteria and codes of dental caries: 0 (A). Sound tooth 1 (B). Decayed tooth 2 (C). Filled tooth with decay .Dental caries indices: tooth (DT, dt) and surface levels (DS, ds) carious lesions were registered for all surfaces of each tooth included. The Decayed component (D) included all teeth with codes 1 or 2. Costs of preventive regimen will be examined from the perspective of a service provider:1. Direct medical cost ( materials and equipment, capital cost and time spent by service provider)2. Indirect cost (overhead cost). | — |
