How scoring works
Each checkpoint is measured from your photos and shown as within or outside, in numbers, in the same fixed order every time. The numbers come from the 2026–27 crown-prep criteria sheet for a molar (criteria sheet, read 2026-11-14): taper up to 12° per wall adheres, over 12° to 16° per wall is marginally substandard, over 16° per wall is critically deficient.
