Modified OXIS Classification of Interproximal Contacts of Primary Canines and Its Prevalence in Six-to-Nine-Year-Olds in the Delhi National Capital Region: A Cross-Sectional Study

Based on the current study, the most common contact type observed was type I, followed by type S1, according to the modified OXIS criteria. The findings indicate a higher prevalence of closed-type contacts in this population, suggesting that the occurrence of such contacts increases as permanent teeth erupt. This tool may be useful for assessing caries risk in this age group.

Abstract

Based on the current study, the most common contact type observed was type I, followed by type S1, according to the modified OXIS criteria. The findings indicate a higher prevalence of closed-type contacts in this population, suggesting that the occurrence of such contacts increases as permanent teeth erupt. This tool may be useful for assessing caries risk in this age group.
