2.3 Restoration Assessment The quality of the restorations was scored according to the modified USPHS criteria. Two examiners underwent calibration exercises each year (JM and EF). The Cohen's Kappa inter-examiner coefficient was 0.74 at the baseline and 0.87 at ten years. Immediately after the treatment (baseline) and 10 years later, the examiners assessed the restorations independently by direct visual and tactile examination with mouth mirror number 5 and explorer number 23 (Hu Friedy Mfg. Co. Inc., Chicago, IL, USA) and indirectly by radiographic examination (bite wing). The five parameters examined were marginal adaptation, anatomic form, surface roughness, secondary caries, and lustre. If a difference was recorded between the two examiners, and if they could not reach an agreement, a third clinician, who also underwent the calibration exercises (GM), made the final decision.
