title: [The assessment of the caries risk in young adults].
abstract: Several factors for caries prediction have been proved in a one-year follow-up study on 73 patients. The white-spot lesions have proved to be a good criteria for caries prediction in this population. These lesions could be combined with the microbiological tests Dentocult SM and Oricult N or with the determination of the buffer capacity (Dentobuff), which did not much improve the prediction.
