Caries scores (DT + Dt) were recorded under simulated field survey conditions on 270 children ranging in age from 3 to 12 years. The children were subsequently diagnosed under optimum clinical conditions. The findings from the field and clinical examinations were statistically analyzed to determine the relationships between "survey" and "true" caries scores. It is proposed that the true mean caries score can be estimated from the survey mean score by adding 1.5 teeth in the primary dentition and 2 teeth in the mixed dentition. Tables were devised to estimate treatment needs for children at various survey caries scores in each dentition category.
在模拟现场调查条件下，记录了270名年龄在3至12岁之间儿童的龋病评分（DT + Dt）。随后在最佳临床条件下对这些儿童进行诊断。对现场检查和临床检查的结果进行统计学分析，以确定“调查”龋病评分与“真实”龋病评分之间的关系。建议通过在乳牙列中增加1.5颗牙齿以及在混合牙列中增加2颗牙齿，从调查平均评分估算真实平均龋病评分。设计了表格，以估算每个牙列类别中不同调查龋病评分儿童的治疗需求。
