International Caries Detection and Assessment is one of the simple and comprehensive system available for epidemiological study of dental caries. Can anybody suggest weather this system be adopted for primary dentition? If yes can it it be directly adopted "As it is" or any modifications available?
You can definately use it in primary dentition. Several papers were published testing their validity. one of which was publishd in 2009 by Shaoib et.al in Journal Caries Research and found that ICDAS II was adequately reproducible and valid. Good luck.
Yes, of course. There are some research about it. You can read this one "Dental caries in the primary dentition of a Colombian population according to the ICDAS criteria" In Brazilian Oral Research.
You can use the system ICDAS in both primary teeth and permanent, there are several studies that support ... however you should consider using or not the code 1 in the study, due to the absence of air in the triple syringe dental equipment

I don´t agree with the use of ICDAS in epidemiological studies. It isn´t an epidemiological index. It´s a clinical staging system, useful for the clinic. I believe that Nyvad index have this connotation should be used and which incorporates valuations for early lesions of dental caries
