Geo-map of caries risk in 3-6-year old children born in Sweden and living in the Halland region, examined in 2010. The map displays, for each of the 58 residential parishes, the smoothed relative risk (SmRR, range between 0.32-2.25) of caries (dmfs > 0) among preschool children (3-6 years. The corresponding statistical certainty geo-map is also shown [red color, Pr (RR > 1|data) >0.95, i.e. a parish with data yielding strong statistical evidence of an elevated caries risk; green color, Pr (RR < 1|data) >0.95, i.e. a parish with data yielding strong statistical evidence of a low caries risk; and yellow color, the 90% credibility interval covers RR = 1, i.e. a parish with data yielding weaker statistical evidence for a high or low relative risk]
