The initial translation of the English CARIES\u2010QC questionnaire to Tamil was made by two independent translators followed by an expert committee discussion to derive a prefinal version of the Tamil questionnaire. Subsequently, content validation was performed by bilingual subject experts followed by preliminary pilot testing among 30 school children aged 8\u201310\u2009years studying in Adidravidar Welfare High School, Chennai, to produce the final version of the questionnaire.
