Eligibility
Age
1 Years to 15 Years
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Patients of both genders; aged between 1 and 15 years; patients that presented interproximal radiographs taken between 2011 and 2020; the most recent radiograph from each region will be included as a measurement reference for the analysis;
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Interproximal radiographs that are not angled perpendicular to the tooth; are not of good quality; Individual sites in which the cementoenamel junction (CEJ) or alveolar bone crest (BC) are not visible; the presence of overlapping structures that make the evaluation unfeasible; deciduous molars that are exfoliating with extensive root resorption
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Linear measurement (in millimeters) of the distance between the cementoenamel junction and the alveolar bone crest, measured from the imageJ computer program on interproximal digital radiographs. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Presence or absence of radiographic bone loss on interproximal radiographs. Distances between the cementoenamel junction and the bone crest greater than 2 mm will be considered a periodontal bone loss. | — |
