Prevention and cariology questions test evidence-based decision-making — fluoride protocols, caries risk assessment, recall scheduling. This exam-level vignette tests your ability to work through clinical details and arrive at the correct management.
A 50-year-old new patient has no frank cavitation but has sticky pits on multiple premolars and C4 radiolucencies on three approximal surfaces. Good diet, uses fluoride toothpaste twice daily. Despite C4 radiolucencies and sticky pits, this patient is classified as Medium risk because:
- A. C4 without frank cavitation or extensive white spots stays within the Medium threshold
- B. Good dietary habits override the radiographic findings and lower the classification
- C. C4 radiolucencies are equivalent to C3 for classification purposes in new patients
- D. Sticky pits only contribute to risk when combined with high Plaque Index scores
