Figure. Schematic of a bitewing radiograph showing 16 scorable surfaces per subject. A caries lesion on the mesial surface of the maxillary second premolar is represented by the dot, and the molar 1/molar 2 (MM) interproximal region by the oval. The MM interproximal region serves as the reference value for the remaining interproximal regions: canine/premolar 1 (CP); premolar 1/premolar 2 (PP); and premolar 2/molar 1 (PM).
