Along with each of these short posts on caries interpretation I will be following up later in the day with practice radiographs. So here is some practice for interproximal caries interpretation.
1. 2. 3. 4. You may post your answers below in the comments or wait until tomorrow when I will be posting the answers. Thanks and enjoy!
1. #2 M (E1), 3 M (E1) &D (E1), 4 M (E2)&D (D1), 27 D (E1), 28 M(E1)&D(E1), 29M(E1)&D (D2), 30 M(E1)
2.#6M (E1), 7D (D1)
3. #13 D(D1), 18M (E1), 19D (E1)
4. #9 D (E1)
Well done! There are a few more on the first practice case. Can you find them? 🙂
Maybe #5D (D1) & #5M (E1) and #6D (E1)? I wasn’t sure about those. ;o)
Yes, I would those as well. 🙂

Thank you so much for this practice exercise. I love you site and use it on a regular basis. I am studying for NBDE part II and your NBDE quick guide is tremendous help.
Thanks. I’m glad you find it useful. If there are any topics you’d like to see please feel free to ask and I’ll do my best. 🙂
1)mesial and distal of the lower second premolar -mesial and distal of the lower first premolar -mesial and distal of upper second premolar-mesial of mandibular first molar
2)mesial of centrals
3)distal of central
4)distal of mandibular first molar – mesial of mandibular second molar
Yes on 1 with a few more to find.
2 has the incorrect teeth identified.
3 looks like you were meaning 4 and yes.
4 – yes with more to find. 🙂
