c. d.
a.
Secondary caries attacks the tooth at the centre (at the margin) of an existing restoration, regardless progression/extent b. Rampant caries is rarely observed in the permanent teeth of adult (most often seen in primary teeth of young children & permanent teeth of teenagers) c. Recurrent caries is the process that attacks tooth at the margin of an existing restoration regarding to extension & progression d. Average size of the lesion in chronic caries is larger than in acute caries (chronic lesion is smaller that acute as progression is much slower)
