A model for use in analyzing the implications of different rates of caries incidence and progression for the timing of bitewing radiographs was developed. Estimates of progression rates and incidence patterns were derived from an analysis of serial bitewing radiographs. A time schedule for taking the next radiographs was determined so that carious lesions would be detected before radiolucencies reach the inner half of the dentin. For asymptomatic persons with extensive exposure to fluorides and no unrestored enamel lesions on the last radiographs, bitewing films could be scheduled every 2.5 to 3 years. For persons with little exposure to fluorides or with many early enamel lesions or at least one deep enamel lesion that has not been restored, radiographs should be performed every 6 months to 1 year.
开发了一种模型，用于分析不同龋齿发病率和进展速度对咬合翼片X线摄影时机的影响。进展速度和发病模式的估计值来自对系列咬合翼片X线摄影的分析。确定了拍摄下一张X线片的时间表，以便在透射区到达牙本质内半部分之前检测到龋损。对于大量接触氟化物且上次X线片上无未修复釉质病变的无症状者，咬合翼片可每2.5至3年安排一次。对于接触氟化物少或有许多早期釉质病变或至少有一个未修复的深釉质病变的人，应每6个月至1年进行一次X线摄影。
