A Multimodal Model for Caries Screening Using Intraoral Images and Questionnaires

Key Points

• To develop and assess a multimodal caries screening model for use at the population level.
• Design a multimodal screening model combining intraoral images and questionnaires.
• Conduct initial testing of the model's effectiveness.
• Identify the need for further validation across multiple centers.
• The model shows promise as an effective screening tool for caries.
• Large-scale validation is necessary to ensure general applicability.
• Further research could enhance its reliability and usage in different populations.
