A Model for the Analysis of Caries Occurrence in Primary Molar Tooth Surfaces [PDF]

, 2012
Recently methods of caries quantification in the primary dentition have moved away from summary ‘whole mouth’ measures at the individual level to methods based on generalised linear modelling (GLM) approaches or survival analysis approaches. However, GLM
