EFFECTS OF MI PASTE PLUS ® : A 12-MONTHS FOLLOW-UP 5 85 Clinical oral photographs For each subject and time point, pictures were collated in a photography gallery comprising four pictures per patient (Figure 1) and printed at high quality to examen and compare. These photographs were assessed by two calibrated examiners (F.B.) and (M.W.B.). Photographs were analysed in random order for subject and time using the International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS) criteria (Cai et al. , 2003). The ICDAS code 1 (First Visual Change in Enamel, seen only after prolonged air drying) was not used due to the fact that no air drying was applied before photographs were made. The examiners assessed separately, and in case lesions were scored differently, a consensus was reached. FIGURE 1.
