Caries experience in the primary molars and canines at 8 yr of age and in the permanent dentition at 16 was correlated in every fourth birth-cohort between 1950 and 1970 in a Danish community. Correlations between 0.44 and 0.55 were found. Cross-tabulation of the data also revealed close association, but prediction of individual high caries risk children based solely on screening for caries experience in the primary dentition is hardly cost-effective.
在丹麦一个社区中，对1950年至1970年期间每四个出生队列的研究发现，8岁时乳牙和犬齿的龋病经历与16岁时恒牙列的龋病经历存在相关性。相关系数在0.44至0.55之间。数据的交叉表也显示出密切关联，但仅基于乳牙列龋病经历筛查来预测个体高龋病风险儿童，几乎不具有成本效益。
