The ability of dentists to select caries risk patients on the basis of what they see and know, varies considerably. There is a need for objective methods. Methods using bacterial counts and salivary tests appeared to be inferior compared to methods based on the caries experience of the patient. There are two models, Nexø and Dentoprog, using the caries experience as caries predictor. The well documented Nexø method does not predict caries increment, but gives the provider a tool to target preventive intervention to those patients in need. The Dentoprog method is accurate, but has only one level of caries risk, which is considered by most providers as too low and thus unpractical.
牙医根据他们所看到和了解的情况来选择龋病风险患者的能力差异很大。因此需要客观的方法。与基于患者龋病经历的方法相比，使用细菌计数和唾液检测的方法似乎较差。有两种模型，即Nexø和Dentoprog，它们将龋病经历用作龋病预测指标。记录充分的Nexø方法不能预测龋病进展，但为提供者提供了一种工具，以便针对有需要的患者进行预防性干预。Dentoprog方法很准确，但只有一个龋病风险等级，大多数提供者认为这个等级太低，因此不实用。
